𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝗢𝗙 𝗙𝗔𝗠𝗜𝗟𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗧𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘𝗦 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰

Today, @Diaspora_KE joined the world in marking the International Day of Family Remittances themed “Digital remittances towards financial inclusion and cost reduction,”

Representing PS @roselinenjogu at the event held at Radisson Blu-Nairobi to mark this special day, Amb. Isaiya Kabira, Secretary-Investments and Entrepreneurship, spoke of the direct impact remittances has had on the education, healthcare, small business development, gender equality, rural economic growth and poverty alleviation of the people of Kenya.

Amb. Kabira added that the Government remains committed to supporting the Kenyan diaspora to ensure that they not only send money for household usage but also get an opportunity to invest and directly contribute to the growth of the country's economy from the comfort of their host countries.

Kenya’s remittance flows are a crucial part of the foreign exchange earnings matrix and vital income source for Kenyans. Thus, the increase of remittances in Kenya is linked to the innovative digital space in the financial sector in the country which has allowed sending of remittances and forward transmission to reach most remote places in Kenya.

However, the exercise of making transmission of funds easy has had challenges especially with the fluctuating exchange rates and the cost of remitting money into the country reportedly at 6 Percent, as opposed to the ideal 3 Percent target.

Those present at the event included CBK Deputy Governor Dr. Susan Koech, IFAD Country Coordinator Ronald Ajengo, and other stakeholders that operate in the financial and fintech spaces.
