Kenya’s National Treasury has raised concerns about data submitted by commercial banks regarding the status of government accounts, accusing the lenders of “insincerity.”

The government had previously restricted its accounts in commercial banks as part of a broader plan to reduce the loss of public funds and transition to a Treasury Single Account (TSA).
