Offers justify a spike in sales.Just bank your notes from the "sales" though it will be less the discounts, taxes and commission for cleaning when the cash eventually gets back to you.

The Stanbic Bank Kenya PMI decreased to 54.1 in July of 2019 from 54.3 in the previous month. The latest reading pointed to another strong improvement in the health of the private sector, mainly due to an even sharper rise in new orders, following another strong increase in demand during June. New export orders growth was sharp but softer than in the previous month and the rate of job creation eased from the two-and-a-half year high recorded in June. On the price front, overall input prices rose at a notable pace and output prices reported the quickest increase since last December. Finally, the outlook for future activity improved even further in July, beating June's previous record high due to investment and expansion plans at several firms. https://tradingeconomics.../kenya/manufacturing-pmi

The National Treasury has instructed all government owned institutions to hand over the cash balances in their bank accounts. On Monday, the treasury invited heads of state-owned corporations to discuss how much near liquid assets and cash balances they would surrender to the state. This move intends to reduce the cost of borrowing for government. Government entities are the biggest buyers of treasury securities. Meaning the state corporations lend to the government at a cost. Treasury Public Secretary Julius Muia commented that such demands have happened in the past. However, they now want to formalize the cash collections and target all state corporations. The surplus money which the corporations will pay back to the government will be accounted for as retained earnings, continued Dr Muia. Business Daily reported that over ten parastatals are holding more than Ksh100 million, a significant amount to be collected upon implementation of the directive. Banks and parastatals are not happy with the Treasury directive. Commercial banks fear that the order will affect their liquidy. At the same time, they worry that the instruction takes away confidence money upon which they relied on to lend parastatals. Heads of state corporations fear that taking away the surplus will limit their loose cash used to finance daily operations and contingencies. Dr Muia responded that the process would be carried out smoothly, after consultation with each state corporation. The senior official brushed off banks’ fears saying that there is sufficient liquidity in the market. “But the amounts are not big, and if you look at the liquidity of the banking sector they are awash with money with liquidity ratios higher than that required by the CBK,” said Dr Julius Muia.

NAIROBI, Aug 15 (Reuters) - Kenya is set to export its first crude oil after its government and a group led by explorer Tullow Oil picked trading company ChemChina UK Ltd to buy its first shipments, the Petroleum and Mining Ministry said. "ChemChina UK Ltd has been selected as the buyer for Kenya's first crude oil exports," Petroleum Principal Secretary Andrew Kamau said in a statement on Thursday. He did not give details on when shipments would commence. Tullow and its partner Africa Oil discovered commercial oil reserves in the Lokichar basin in Kenya's far northern county of Turkana in 2012. Total has since taken a 25% stake in the project. Since last year the group has been running a pilot scheme to transport some 2,000 barrels per day by truck to the port city of Mombasa to test flow rates and other technical issues before the start of full production and exports via a pipeline, to be built by 2022. ChemChina UK's initial purchases are expected to be small-scale, with full commercial shipments due to begin once the pipeline is constructed. Tullow estimates that Kenya's onshore fields in Turkana hold 560 million barrels of oil and expects them to produce up to 100,000 barrels per day from 2022. The government received eight bids from international firms representing European and Asian refineries after it issued the tender to buy the oil on July 26, Kamau said, describing the response as "strong". President Uhuru Kenyatta said earlier this month that Kenya had secured a buyer for 200,000 barrels of crude oil worth $12 million, though he did not give further details at that time.

https://kenyanwallstreet...ssible-exit-from-kenya/
South African Fashion retailer, The Foschini Group (TFG), is reviewing its Kenyan business with the possibility of leaving the market in 2020. The jewelry and clothes store cites high VAT charges, heightened costs of doing business, and unfavorable laws as some of the reasons for the possible exit. The Foschini Group (TFG) first came into Kenya in 2016, through its Sterns outlet at the Junction mall. The shop mainly sells classic jewelry and it targets people in the lower-middle, middle and upper income class. In a statement, TFG CEO Anthony Thunstrom said they are thinking of concentrating on their home market back in South Africa, because it makes greater profits and strides there, with retail revenues rising by 19.6% by the end of March 2019. The group will, however, review economic growth, legislature and lease negotiation before they decide on whether or not they will exit the market. Foschini Group, which has twenty-two different retail brands under its label, deals in merchandise such as clothing, jewellery and home ware, which target the middle and upper middle income markets. It has six outlets in Kenya, with some of the stores situated at The Village Market. Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation Wealth=Income + Investments - Lifestyle
