Across the Eastern African region, the impacts of COVID-19 are being felt in different ways and the measures taken by th

In this publication, we provide insights on the expected economic impacts of COVID-19 in Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda as well as various measures proposed by their governments to mitigate the impact. Due
4、 to the fast paced nature of this pandemic and the ensuing government measures and economic impact, we have used available data through 08 May 2020 for the purposes of our analysis in this publication.

A locust swarm affecting domestic agricultural production will likely hit hard agricultural growth in 2020. Further, weakened gr
23、owth prospects for key trading partners in North America and Europe due to the COVID-19 pandemic is also expected to limit demand for Kenyas exports of coffee and horticultural products over the short term. The Vegetables and fruits markets remain with minimal activities as exporters are shipping on
24、ly 25% to 30% of their normal capacity. Kenyas flower exports have so far recorded a more than 50% drop in exports with indications that production is currently at less than 10% and facing the risk of total collapse. Kenyas tourism industry registered improved performance in 2019 mainly attributed t
25、o growth in aviation, investor confidence and withdrawal of travel advisories. Tourism earnings increased by 3.9% from KES 157.4bn in 2018 to KES 163.6bn in 2019 while the number of international arrivals increased by 1.2% from 2m arrivals in 2018 to 2.1m arrivals in 2019. As such the sector contrib
26、uted to about 8.8% of Kenyas GDP in the same period and over 1.1m jobs to the Kenyan economy. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, leisure and conference tourism, both external and domestic face possible collapse owing to travel restrictions which has completely stopped international tourist arrivals, whil
27、e social distancing measures have affected domestic tourism and conferencing. Given the tourism sectors strong linkages with the wider economy, reduced tourist arrivals will impede consumption of various goods and services and the incomes of workers in related sectors. The Kenyan government has set
28、aside KES 500m to help the tourism sector recover post the coronavirus pandemic. Impact on Kenyas economy Impact on Manufacturing Impact on Construction and Real Estate Sectors Economic Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on East African Economies Manufacturing is one of the Big Four Agenda for the Keny
29、an government and therefore critical for Kenyas economic growth and development. The manufacturing sector contributed about 7.7% to Kenyas GDP in 2019. The COVID-19 pandemic presents a mixed impact to the sector with certain subsectors likely to boost production to meet essential goods demand, while
30、 others may suffer depressed demand and production activity. Food and health products manufacturing are likely to stay afloat. Food production will be boosted by persistence of domestic demand for essential food items, while health products manufacturing will benefit from expected expansion in manuf
31、acturing of essential medical and protective equipment to deal with the unfolding pandemic. The construction and real estate sectors combined contribute about 12.4% (USD 11.3bn) to Kenyas GDP. The major interruptions on these sectors include shorter working hours, decline in construction materials d
32、ue to supply disruptions, and lower demand for housing. The public housing project will also be impacted as the government pulls together funds to deal with the scourge and respond to emergency interventions. Further ramifications on the construction and real estate sectors include a decline in proj
33、ect financing as lenders would be uneasy to finance construction projects because of the uncertainty surrounding the completion of projects. Government infrastructural projects are also expected to stall due to a shortfall in revenue collections by USD 658m and as the government expands spending on
34、the health sector to combat the virus. Financial uncertainty is expected to dampen uptake of houses in the real estate sector in 2020. Given that real estate buying is often characterised by speculation, most investors are already counting losses as the COVID-19 pandemic impedes access to credit. Ho
35、using being part of Kenyas Big Four Agenda, the government is expected to extend critical intervention to the sector throughout the pandemic.

39、ution against the deadly COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, Kenya Airways (KQ) has applied for a state bailout to avoid its collapse as aircrafts were grounded and revenue sources cut-off. The suspension of international flights saw the airline send home most of its workers on unpaid leave as from 1 A
40、pril, 2020, the management team taking a 75% pay cut and the CEO getting an 80% pay cut. For the past 3 months (January to March 2020), the airline has experienced 3.5m fewer passengers resulting in a USD 0.73 bn revenue loss, risking 193,300 jobs and USD 1.6 bn in contribution to Kenyas economy. On
41、e job in the airline transport industry supports approximately another 24 jobs in the economy. As such, a collapse of the airline transport industry would translate to significant losses in other sectors of the economy. Kenyas first major economic impact due to COVID-19 was on the stocks market. Tra

As of day close 08 May 2020, the bourse had
43、 fallen even more steeply with the the NSE 20 share index having dropped by 26.05% on a year to date (YTD) basis, as investors, especially foreign ones react to the evolving pandemic. Most investors have since the onset of the pandemic indulged in a net selling position with a preferred option of pu

Economic Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on East African Economies Government intervention measures To navigate through the crisis, governments need to provide a bridge to get the private sector to the other side of the pandemic in r
45、easonable shape. Unlike the 2007/2008 financial crisis, the drawback does not originate from the financial crisis and as such, governments would want to put a keen eye on fiscal policies as much as central banks have a great role to play in terms of supporting liquidity. The Kenyan government has pu
46、t in place several fiscal, monetary and institutional policies in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Government has been running a budget deficit of around 7% of GDP which raises concerns around how the country can afford to cut tax earnings without making efforts to cut spending, especia
47、lly the non-essential kind. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has approved a KES 79.3 billion disbursement as part of the Rapid Credit Facility (RCF) to Kenya to help in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. At the start of April 2020, the government also received KES 5.3bn from the World Bank and KES
48、 7.4bn from the Central Bank to help navigate through the COVID-19 storm. The funds can indeed have a significant impact but this will depend on how the funds are spent and on whether the government is able to implement additional, more inclusive measures to counter the effects of COVID-19. The diff
49、erent measures undertaken this far include: Tax Based Measures: Fiscal/Monetary Measures: Reduction of turnover tax from 3% to 1%. 100% Tax Relief for “low income” earners-individuals earning up to KES 24,000 per month. Reduction of the Central Bank Rate from 7.25% to 7.00%. Increased the maximum tenor of repurchase agreements from 28 to 91 days. Temporary suspension of listing with credit reference bureaus for person who default on their loan obligations with effect from 01 April 2020. Reduction of VAT from 1
