Data from the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) indicates that the country’s biggest source of foreign capital inflows is shrinking. Last month, Kenyans living outside the country sent home all of USD 208 Mn, some 9 percent less than the amount sent home in March. The dip in remittances is not unconnected to the shocks caused by the global pandemic and the situation might yet worsen.
