The Governor of Central Bank of Kenya Patrick Njoroge has been named the Central Bank Governor of the Year for Sub-Saharan Africa. The annual award by GlobalMarkets magazine recognises exemplary individual effort by CBK managers across the world. Banks have tightened their lending standards in response, thanks to the central bank’s oversight,'' GlobalMarkets said. While accepting the award, Njoroge recognised the work done by CBK staff, and pointed to the ongoing work in support of the innovation and green finance. Njoroge is serving his second term as CBK governor, having been reappointed by President Uhuru Kenyatta in June for another period of four years.
