Kenya's central bank says in market to mop up 10bn shillings

27 Mar, 2015

NAIROBI: Kenya's central bank said on Friday it planned to mop up 10 billion shillings ($109 million) in excess liquidity from the money markets using repurchase agreements and term auction deposits.

Mopping up excess liquidity makes it more costly to hold dollars, which partly lends support to the shilling.
