The Central Bank of Kenya cut its central bank rate 25 basis points to 5.75% from 6.0%, in effort to spur economic growth given relatively low inflation risks (the Kenyan economy grew 6.1% in Q3 2010). The Bank's Monetary Policy Committee noted that headline inflation was 4.5% in December, which is below the 5% official inflation target; the bank also noted it sees little upside inflation risk in 2011.
