Treasury bills subscription hit Sh62.26 billion at the weekly auction with the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) accepting about a third at Sh18.34 billion, turning away Sh43 billion.

The 364-day paper continued to get the most interest, receiving bids worth Sh34.58 billion — a 345.87 per cent subscription rate — as investors sought to lengthen investment duration. CBK accepted just Sh10.8 billion from the paper.

If you look at financial results of all banks in 2018 Q1 vs FY2017 you'll see a dip in loan and advances to customers
