New VAT taxes to see radical shift in inflation in the country

19th September, 2018

As the country continues to grapple with the VAT taxes imposed on petroleum products, the renaissance insurance has warned of radical shift in inflation in the country. The firm feels that the consequences of the fuel rise will be the rise in the prices of food in the country which might drive the inflation 1 to 2 percent higher. The independent investment bank however feels that the country doesn’t have to worry about the debts and should instead go out and borrow more to put into investments on electricity and education which according to them are the key drivers of economies. They moreover welcomed the move by the government, in the supplementary budget, to slash spending and they feel that the government is doing enough to prevent Kenya from going the Argentina way.
