Kenya country watch
Exposure to Kenya means watching the Central Bank and the shilling, Nairobi's finance bills, tax protests and debt decisions, the Port of Mombasa and the Northern Corridor to Uganda and Rwanda, drought and harvest news, and the tea, flowers, telecoms, mobile-money and banking groups that make it East Africa's hub. We read the Business Daily, the Daily Nation, The Standard, The East African and Capital FM every morning.
