CBK now targets interbank rate to cap money flow

CBK’s declaration that it will engage in aggressive liquidity mop-up each time the interbank rate — cost of borrowing between banks — falls two percentage points below the CBR, is expected to secure the high interest-rate regime and cap inflation for at least a month longer.

I assume you mean the eurobond thing. This eurobond talk has dragged on forever. Then the risks of this euro debt bomb is not helping either. Come 2017 we'll still be floating that eurobond...

We are a land of dreams now. Anything is possible, although that duration is rather high... 10yrs... hummm.

But nobody listens or cares until the next episode of currency volatility, credit squeeze with sky high funding rates & an economical growth slump period.

KE needs to ensure that it can maintain a GDP growth of 5% plus at least for 5yrs in a row to plug the deficits. Otherwise austerity pills will be served and that will be a bad outcome. Local production boost is a must and imports of things that can be sourced locally should be highly taxed. I like that idea by Jimnah about forming a bank of industries which can fund massive projects.

The government has taken advantage of falling interest rates to raise more than a quarter of the planned annual borrowing in the first month of the financial year.

Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) data shows that the Treasury’s net borrowing as at Thursday last week had hit Sh29 billion out of Sh108.7 billion planned for the fiscal year 2012/13, as interest rate yields on government securities have fallen steadily in recent months.

World Bank Launches Bond in Nigerian Naira.

Another good initiative by the World Bank to support currencies in Africa. They now offer bond issues in Botswana Pula, Ghanaian Cedi, Nigerian Naira, South African Rand, Uganda Shilling and Zambian Kwacha. That pretty much somes up the major markets in Sub-Saharan Africa or I'm I missing one? smile

Why haven't we been invited to the party?
