With the Garment keen to source a syndicate loan of upto $ 600M overseas to plug a yawning deficit, the Garment's appetite for Domestic Borrowing will drastically decline.

Its rather sad that i boarded the T-Bills gravy train at circa 10%, and now at 20% with such impending news...

My only bet is if the financiers can shy away due to the election fever this year,the ICC bombshell and offcourse the deeping Euro zone crisis later on..

Until this yield curve inverts (i.e. 30yr has higher interest pay than 2yr) forget declines in tbill/tbonds. I don't see the $600M fixing the gok debt gap. The June 2012 budget will be interesting esp the KDF part... Waiting with baited breath...

And when is CBK throwing away those archaic forex controls... FX traders outside KE want to get back to biz bwana...

@hisah,the rate for the 3 month t-bill has dropped today as compared to last week albeit by a small fraction,that could be a pointer to the direction the rates will take.

Yes there was a problem with their system on that month I overheard the clerk explain it to some one else about the system breakdown.

About sleeping on the Job yesterday I was there they opened quite late 15mins late for a bank like that I think someone is not doing his job.
