Meanwhile in SA

Governor of the Reserve Bank, Lesetja Kganyago announced today that the reserve bank will be hiking rates at 25 bases points. The repo rate will now be at 6%. Kganyago said the committee is concerned that failure to act against these heightened pressures and risks will cause inflation expectations to become entrenched at higher levels.

These CBs will hike rates till they go nuts smile

INO, that news bite about NBK clearing the yuan is significant news! This will give legs to KES unlike these snappy CBR hike. No wonder the ICBC toured KE just before this newsflash and ahead of GES. The GES attendees will be whispering about this new development. Very sneaky from chinaman smile

Really? Hmmm, I think the excitement is overdone. It will have little to no effect on the KES.

Indeed, talk can be deadly. This interview alone has seen a loss of 0.50/- from yesterday's close - Usd/Kes currently at 102.405

Short term obviously not. But long term the yuan clearing setup ensures that KE becomes a financial hub for Africa giving KES bull legs.
