IEA Launches Debt Tracking Tools as Controller of Budget Urges Automation - November 2025

The Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) has launched Kenya’s first real-time debt clock to provide immediate visibility into the nation's public debt and promote fiscal transparency. The IEA also launched a new digital platform, the Kenya Debt Counter, to monitor the country's escalating public debt amidst concerns that figures are being under-reported. In a related development, the Controller of Budget is advocating for the complete automation of Kenya’s public debt management system. This call for automation is intended to mitigate errors and improve oversight as a recent report highlights the country's rising debt servicing costs.
