This week we have the first part of this month’s bond auction where the CBK will be re-opening the FXD1/2023/10Yr (8.3 years) and FXD1/2022/15Yr (12.5 years) in a bid to lock in KES 25Bn. My expectations for these papers will be in tomorrow’s note. For the rest of your dealings for the week ahead, attached is the CBK weekly report to assist in your reading of the market while updated benchmark Yield Curve levels are ready for your perusal on the attached pricelist. I have also attached the NSE Implied Yields for the NSE’s valuations of all the treasuries. To bring it all together, below is a snapshot of what is at play within the secondary market for your consideration. Happy hunting!
