What it means
Our explanation
What is this?
The Central Bank published draft prudential guidelines, risk management guidelines, guidance notes and a framework for identifying domestic systemically important banks, and invited comments.
Why it matters
Prudential guidelines set the capital, liquidity, governance and risk rules that every licensed bank must follow. The D-SIB framework decides which banks face additional requirements because their failure would affect the whole system.
What changes
The drafts revise the existing CBK prudential and risk management guidelines. The specific changes are in the draft documents linked from the notice.
Who could be affected
Banks and mortgage finance companies, their customers and shareholders, and bodies such as the Kenya Bankers Association.
Major provisions
The notice links to the draft guidelines, guidance notes and the D-SIB framework. Each is a separate document.
What the institution is asking
Written comments on the draft documents by the stated deadline.
Deadline and email are as reported in the research note of 17 September 2026 from the CBK post; confirm against the notice before relying on them.
