About Kenyan Shilling (KSh)

The Kenyan Shilling (KES, ISO 4217 code 404, symbol KSh; also written /=) is the official currency of the Republic of Kenya, issued by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK, est. 1966). Subdivided into 100 cents (no longer in use). Banknotes: KSh50, KSh100, KSh200, KSh500, KSh1,000 (current 'Kenya Generations' series introduced 2019 features Kenya's history, biodiversity, and infrastructure — replacing the previous series that featured presidential portraits, in response to a 2010 constitutional provision prohibiting portrayals of individuals on legal tender); coins: KSh1, KSh5, KSh10, KSh20, KSh40 (commemorative). Kenya is East Africa's largest economy (~$110B GDP in 2024). Kenya is also a global pioneer in mobile-money — M-Pesa (launched 2007 by Safaricom + Vodafone) has ~80% of Kenyan adults registered, processing ~$314B in transactions in fiscal year 2022 per CBK — making Kenya effectively a 'cashless' society for most retail transactions in the urban areas. CBK targets 5% CPI inflation ± 2.5% band. Major exports include tea (the world's #2 producer), cut flowers (~38% of EU cut-flower imports), coffee, and horticulture.
