Kenya’s Public debt strategy paper is a tool produced by the national government annually to set borrowing limits and ensure debts are serviced without a risk of default.
There are various types of debts such as domestic debt, external debt and debts from MTDs.
External debt will comprise 24.6 percent of the entire public debt burden followed closely by domestic debt at 26.4 percent of the total Kenya government borrowing.
External sources include: Non-Paris Club, Paris Club, International Development Association and other multilateral agencies such as World Bank Group and International Monetary Fund among others.
On the other hand, internal sources include: Treasury Bills and Treasury Bonds.
The Kenya government borrowing also originates from local banks and even pension schemes.
