NAIROBI: Kenya’s shilling was stable on Monday, but traders said they expected it firm because of dollar inflows from non-governmental organisations, remittances and foreign investors buying government bonds on sale this month.
At 0658 GMT, the shilling traded at 129.00/129.40 per dollar, unchanged from Friday’s closing rate.
