About this currency pair
Kenyan Shilling (KES) — the currency of Kenya
The Kenyan shilling replaced the East African shilling after independence-era monetary changes. The Kenyan Shilling is used in Kenya, where it provides the reference for local prices, wages, public payments, bank accounts and invoices. Conversions are commonly used for remittances, import pricing, travel, development projects, commodity trade and comparisons with USD, EUR or regional currencies. The shilling name reflects a historical monetary tradition that remains in use in parts of East Africa and nearby regions.
British Pound Sterling (GBP) — a major international currency
The pound sterling is one of the world’s oldest currencies still in use and remains closely associated with UK prices, wages, banking and financial markets. GBP is also important for travel, ecommerce, invoices, investment reporting and comparisons with EUR and USD, especially because London is a major international financial centre.
