This reduction aligns with the Central Bank of Kenya’s recent decision to cut the Central Bank Rate (CBR) by 50 basis points to 10.75%, aiming to stimulate economic activity by making credit more affordable. Equity Bank’s adjustment reflects its commitment to easing the financial burden on borrowers and supporting economic growth. citeturn0search1
