[World Bank] Nairobi -- Kenya's real GDP growth accelerated to 5.6% in 2023, surpassing the previous year's growth of 4.9%. However, GDP growth in 2024 is expected to slow down to 5.0%. This is according to the latest Kenya Economic Update (KEU) launched today, which adds that the 2023 growth was driven by the recovery of the agriculture sector, following improved weather conditions, and the services sector, with tourism and financial services contributing the most.
