KCB to Implement New Risk-Based Loan Pricing Model in December
Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) has announced it will implement the Central Bank of Kenya’s (CBK) newly issued Revised Risk-Based Credit Pricing Model (RBCPM), with the transition set to begin on December 1, 2025. The bank issued a public notice informing customers that all new local currency variable-rate loans taken from that date will be priced using the updated framework. According to the notice, lending rates for new variable-rate loans will be pegged on a Common Reference Rate, combined with a customer-specific risk-based premium, referred to as “K”. The Common Reference Rate will be aligned to the CBK policy rate under the Monetary Policy Implementation Framework.

Kenya has lost a giant in its democracy. Every major democratic inflection point in Kenya — the re-legalisation of multi-party politics in the 1990s, the constitutional overhaul of 2010, and the recurring negotiation of electoral crises — bears Raila Odinga’s imprint.
