NAIROBI, April 27 (Reuters) - Kenya's shilling eased slightly against the dollar on Thursday, as fuel and
merchandise importers sought dollars to clear end-month
payments, traders said.
At 0758 GMT, commercial banks quoted the shilling at
135.75/95 per dollar, compared with 135.70/90 at Tuesday's
close.
The shilling has lost 9.2% of its value against the dollar
since the start of the year, hitting a fresh low on Thursday of
135.85/136.05 before recovering slightly.
