Population in Kenya
Kenya - Population
GDP growth expanded at the fastest rate in over 10 years in the second quarter, with nearly all sectors of the economy recording improving output, although activity in the agricultural sector declined at a quicker pace. That said, Q2’s result was flattered by a low base effect. Turning to Q3, double-digit expansions in both merchandise exports and imports in July–August hint at healthy foreign and domestic demand conditions in the quarter, while the private sector PMI came in above the prior quarter’s average. Meanwhile, on 20 October the government lifted the country’s nationwide curfew—originally imposed on March 2020—boding well for activity in the final stretch of the year. In other news, on 8 November Kenya's Equity Group Holdings announced the launch of a KES 500 billion (around USD 4.5 billion) loan program to help SMEs impacted by the health crisis.Kenya - Population Data
