What is in this chart. Borrowed money only, totalling 12.22T. Pending bills — money owed to suppliers rather than lenders — are not debt and are reported separately below. External creditors are named from World Bank International Debt Statistics, which covers public and publicly guaranteed external debt and reports in US dollars: the split between creditors is firmer than the shilling amounts, which depend on the exchange rate used.

Who each category is owed to

Where every KES 100 of revenue goes

Kenya’s revenue (FY 2026/27) doesn’t cover the whole budget — debt service is a first-call charge, paid before anything else. What’s left funds the rest; the shortfall is borrowed.

Debt service takes about

78KES

out of every KES 100 collected in tax & non-tax revenue

FY 2026/27 debt service is from The National Treasury, Programme Based Budget FY 2026/27 (Approved) (CFS summary PDF p.1193). Uses tax & non-tax revenue; debt figure includes total debt service (interest + principal redemptions).

How this is calculated

Calculated as FY 2026/27 total debt service of about KSh 2.316T divided by tax & non-tax revenue of about KSh 2.986T (2.316 ÷ 2.986 × 100 ≈ 77.6), the Treasury APDMR definition. It counts principal repaid on maturing loans as well as interest; the bar below counts interest only, because principal is refinanced rather than spent.

Different official debt-service measures may give lower or higher figures depending on the numerator or denominator used, but this card sticks to the seeded fiscal-summary ratio so the page stays internally consistent.

Your 100-shilling coin, split

100

Filled = total debt service per KES 100 of revenue (interest plus principal repaid; most principal is refinanced, not spent)

Spending per KES 100 of revenue: 160.3The 60.3 above 100 is financed by A-i-A (21.6), grants (1.5), net borrowing (37.2).

Stalled payments

Money already owed to suppliers, contractors and staff — but not yet paid. Older bills are a signal of cashflow distress.

How to read the rate and interest columns. External rows show the interest Kenya actually paid each creditor in the year World Bank IDS reports (“paid”); IDS gives no rate per creditor. Treasury bonds show the average coupon of the bonds in CBK’s register and bills show CBK’s 91-day yield; their interest is modelled as balance × that rate, not published. “—” means no publisher gives the figure; hover for why. These columns do not add up to a total: they are on different bases and different years.
