What is the chance of government restructuring domestic debt at the moment guys?

I see interest of domestic papers is almost 3/4 yet debt itself is less than half. Also noted that Ghana was in the same situation and has begun restructuring domestic debt.....

...then sometime last year we almost defaulted on a due Chinese loan interest 0payment?


GOK has been beseeching TB holders to convert to longer term Bonds

Conversion of debt to long term is not a big problem for me. Restructuring debt is what I'm worried about. Imagine holding a bond of 12% then the government doesn't pay up or reduces the interest on rolled over interest to zero!

I don't think that the Government can refuse to pay, or reduce interest on rolled over bids to zero.
Too many funds and banks are holding investments.
They could, I suppose not redeem the investments on the due dates, and keep paying the coupon.
Or they could, as they recently did, offer attractive switch bonds for upcoming redemptions.

Unless things change, the path we are on as a country will most likely lead us to Ghana situation. I saw that even Counties have not been receiving funds

The recent Tap Sale for IFB1/2023/17 attracted kshs12B only from the 20B on offer signalling tight liquidity in the market given that the coupon rate was quite attractive at 14.399% p.a.
