The impact of the fluctuation of the Kenyan currency with regards to investment in Kenya

The Kenyan shilling dropped significantly in value (by approximately 22%) against the US dollar between March 2022 and January 2024. During this period there was a continuous drop in value with the lowest rate being KES 160.80 per dollar in January 2024. Various factors have been attributed to the depreciation of the shilling against the dollar, including the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected the global economy; rapid monetary policy tightening by the US Federal Reserve; the Russia-Ukraine war and the subsequent sanctions against Russia which disrupted supply chains; drought; and the Kenyan Government’s heavy debt burden, which reduced Kenya’s reserves below the required level of not less than the value of four months’ worth of imports. In February 2024, the shilling gained against the dollar from KES 160 to KES 145 and, as at 6 March, the shilling stands at 142.8 against the dollar. It is not certain whether this upward trend will continue or if future declines/fluctuations are to be expected. In this article, we discuss the actions taken by the Government to mitigate this, look at the impact of fluctuation of the Kenyan currency on investments, and propose somesolutions.      Mitigation measures by the Government

Shifting tides: Rethinking non-compete clauses in employment contracts

Non-compete clauses are provisions in employment contracts that restrict an employee from engaging in certain competitive activities after the employment relationship ends within a specific time frame and geographical area. Employers often use them to safeguard their business interests. They aim to prevent former employees from leveraging their knowledge and relationships to benefit competitors while also respecting the employee’s right to seek future employment. This balance is crucial, ensuring that the clauses protect the employer’s interests without unreasonably restricting the employee’s career prospects.
