*Kenya’s Trade Position Improving*
The CBK’s June MPC report notes that the current account deficit narrowed to 1.8% of GDP in the 12 months to April 2025, compared to 2.2% a year earlier.
This improvement is largely thanks to higher diaspora remittances, stronger exports (especially of tea and horticulture), and a continued recovery in tourism.
This better trade position reduces pressure on the Kenyan shilling and strengthens the country’s financial stability.
