ANNUAL REPORT 2006/2007 3

Statement by former Minister of Ministry of


Trade & Industry
Kenya has had a long history of economic leadership in East Africa
as one of the largest and most advanced economies in the region.
Enhancing Kenya’s competitiveness in attracting investments
and ease the investment process, the Investment Promotion Act
2004, Cap 485 of 1986 was passed. This transformed Investment
Promotion Centre (IPC) to Kenya Investment Authority (KIA) with
an expanded mandate in executing its role of investment promotion,
investment facilitation and policy advocacy. This was one of the
priorities envisioned in the Economic Recovery Strategy for Wealth
and Employment Creation (ERS) (2003-2007).

Kenya was recently recognized by the World Bank as one of the top
five countries that have implemented business reforms that support
more private investment throughout Africa. Kenya launched an
ambitious licensing reform program. The program has eliminated
110 business licenses and simplified eight others.

The Government targets to eliminate or simplify more than 900


more of the country’s 1,300 licenses. The changes have streamlined
business start-up and cut the time and cost of getting building
permits and licenses. This effort has provided confidence to
potential investors in Kenya.

The Vision 2030 was developed by the government to take over


after ERS scheduled to end in 2007 and spur rapid and sustainable
growth and development up to the year 2030. Six priority sectors
for promotion were identified. They are Manufacturing, Agriculture
and Agro processing, Tourism, Business process outsourcing,
Finance, Wholesale and retail. The Authority will now transit from
its generalized approach to promotion and adopt a more tailor-
made approach.

The Authority is in the process of setting up a One Stop Shop. It


will be a place where an investor deals with one single entity to
obtain all the necessary documentation in one streamlined and
coordinated process. The One Stop Shop will enable the institution
to execute its mandate more effectively and efficiently, and in line
with best practices around the world. In this regard the Authority
is under going a restructuring exercise for better service delivery
to the investors. This report will highlight the process, trials and
success of the Authority.

Chairman’s
Statement

Introduction

It gives me great pleasure to present to you the 2006/2007 Annual


Report. KenInvest strives on being a world class (IPA) in attracting and
facilitating investments and providing input towards improving the
country’s economic performance.

Investment Environment

In the last financial year the recorded economic growth of 7% was


boosted due to past and current investments in all sectors
Manufacturing, Tourism, Agriculture, Transport and
Telecommunications were the main growth sectors in the economy.

Financial Results

KenInvest received a clean bill of health in this year’s audit report by


KENAO. The organization received certification with no queries.

Corporate Governance

The Board continued to ensure that proper standards of corporate


governance were maintained and continued to have oversight over the
management of the company, not only through the board meetings
but also through the various board committees. In this regard, the
Board met regularly and deliberated on a broad range of issues.
These included strategic plan, logo, human resources and investment
promotion activities.

Future Outlook

A key part in our growth strategy is through expansion of our services


to other regions in the country. KenInvest’s has now operational
regional offices in Kisumu,Mombasa in addition to the Eldoret office.

Finally, I would like to extend my sincere thanks to my colleagues on


the board for their excellent performance and unwavering support
and to the entire staff of KenInvest for a job well done in the year

Managing
Director’s
Statement

This is the third year of the implementation of the Economic Recovery


Strategy (ERS) for Wealth and Employment Creation, 2003-2007. The
strategy identifies key policy actions necessary to spur the recovery
of the economy and is based on four pillars. First the government
recognizes that rapid economic growth will be required over the
next four years but in an environment of macro- eco¬nomic stability.
The second pillar is strengthening of institutions of governance. It
underscores the centrality of the rule of law as opposed to the rule of
man in the creation of good governance. Rehabilitation and expansion
of physical infrastructure is the third pillar. The final pillar is investment
in the human capital of the poor.

The macro economic objectives are:

• Creation of 500,000 jobs per year. Over the period 2003-2007, a


total of 2,636,130 jobs are expected to be created out of which
12 per cent i.e. 316,335 will be from the formal sector and the
balance of 88 per centfrom small business enterprises.
• Growth of the Economy at 7%
• Increasing official foreign reserves from US$1.1 billion or 2.8
months of import cover in 2002 to US$ 1.7 billion or 3.5 months
of import cover in 2007.
• Reducing poverty level by at least 5 percentage points from the
current 56.8 per cent
• Containing the average annual inflation rate to below 5%
• Containing the current account deficit in the balance of
pay¬ments to an average of 6.2% of GDP.
• Increasing domestic savings so as to enable higher levels of
investments for sustainable development.

This report falls within this period (3rd year of ERS) covering the year
1st July 2006 to 30th June 2007. It provides an insight to the KenInvest’s
main activities and performances including corporate governance. We
worked within the frame work of the ERS and as our main document
of reference and as a result, this report will cover investment enquiries,
investment approvals, investment promotion, and investment policy.
In 2006/2007, KenInvest identified with the first and fouth pillars of
ERS and developed the following objectives:-

Corporate
Information
Kenya Investment Authority was established by an Act of Parliament. It
is charged with the responsibility of promoting and facilitating inward
investment in Kenya by issuing Investment Certificates, assisting
in obtaining licenses and work permits among other functions. In
addition, KenInvest contributes to improving Kenya’s investment
climate by analyzing and reviewing existing investment related
policies, and advocating for continuous improvement of the same.
KenInvest in reinventing itself, started by identifying with an acronym
that has a punch. KenInvest seeks to identify itself as a world-class
investment promotion agency in the following ways:-

VISION

“To be a world class agency in marketing Kenya as the first choice


investment destination”

MISSION

“To provide exceptional services to attract, facilitate and retain


investments in Kenya”

As set out in the Performance Contract for the year 2006/2007,


KenInvest processed and facilitated 90 projects, with a potential capital
outlay of KShs. 92 billion, which surpassed our target. These projects
translated to direct employment of ten thousand two hundred and
sixty five (10,265) Kenyans In addition, KenInvest has facilitated close
to 10 major market entrants including Africa Clean Energy Windflow
Ltd, Intex Construction Ltd, Broadband Telecom (K), Ltd Five Star
Industries Ltd, Gold Lida Ltd, Kenpor Ltd, General Electric, Osho
Grain Millers Ltd, and Old Mutual Life Assurance Co. to name a few
in this financial year. Table 1 tries to provide an overview analysis of
investments (both domestic and International) processed by KenInvest

Tourism took the cake in this financial year as it also contributed to


the raise in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) within this financial year.
Services are a common sector that contributes to growth and improved
GDP especially in the telecommunication and finance sectors.
However, in relation to International investments, telecommunication
contributed more in the services sector.

It is common Knowledge that information Communication technology


(ICT) plays an important role in investor’s confidence. As a result,
KenInvest has been in the past challenged for lack thereof in this
area. As a result, KenInvest in this financial year has successfully
networked the entire office to enhance efficient communication and
workflow. The network is expected to grow therefore it is scalable to
accommodate more. A new faster and efficient internet connectivity
solution using Asynchronous Digital Service Line (ADSL) technology
has been deployed to replace the dial-up solution in place before. The
head office is in the process of upgrading the current wireless leased
line from 128 kbps to 256 kbps to accommodate the growing demand
for more internet bandwidth. KenInvest will in the next financial
year develop an ICT policy to encourage more usage of ICT in the
organization.

Composition
of Kenya
Investment
Authority

The organization is comprised four departments namely:-


1. Corporate Affairs
2. Investment Promotions
3. Research and Policy
4. Investor Services

Corporate Affairs
This department essentially handles the functions of a Finance and
Administration and mostly the outlook of the organization and also
ensures that KenInvest operates within the legal framewor of Kenya.
This department facilitates membership to institutions with similar
objectives such as the World Association of Investment Promotion
Agencies WAIPA and other Investment Promotion Agencies.

Currently, the Authority is undergoing a restructuring programme


which is expected to be complete by the end of this financial year
as the internal recruitment has been completed KenInvest now has
a Managing Director since September 2006. General Managers have
been interviewed, but have not come on board due to shortage of
funds. Meanwhile, we continue to use volunteers and temporary staff
to augment the few technical staff.

Investment Promotion (Marketing)


In 2006-2007, KenInvest launched massive campaigns to attract
investors into the country. As a result, there was a marked improvement
in enquiries vide email and telephones. An average of 100 enquiries
were received monthly. An average of two incoming missions per
month to Kenya from Europe, Asia and the Middle East. A number
of African countries particularly South Africa and the East African
Communities partner states, came to Kenya.

This year, KenInvest made use of the Kenyan Embassies and


Consulates abroad as key avenues for investment promotion. Notable
correspondences came in from Egypt, China, Germany, South Africa
and the UK. In return, KenInvest used these missions as selling points
for the country. Materials sent to each embassy included the Kenya
and EAC Investment Guides.

KenInvest staff forged a working relationship with the foreign missions


accredited to Kenya principally that of South Africa, Germany, France
and the UN and in particular UNDP which provided promotional/
financial support. The Chinese Embassy has over the last two years
20 KENYA INVESTMENT AUTHORITY

also offered training familiarisation tours for over half of the senior
staff of the Authority.

Research and Policy


The department played a big role in drafting the Investment Act 2004
that enabled the operationalisation of KenInvest which has greatly
improved the investment climate in Kenya as evidenced by the number
of enquiries and project proposals to KenInvest. The department
through the office of the Attorney General drafted the Investment
Regulations which were enacted under the ‘Investment Promotion
(Investment Registration and Certificates) Regulations, 2005’ on 13th
January, 2006 through Kenya Gazette Supplement No.1, Legal Notice
No.1 of 2005.

As a Member of Growing Sustainable Business (GSB) under UNDP,


KenInvest was involved in facilitating business-led enterprise solutions
to poverty in advancement of the Millennium Development Goals
(MDG). These enterprise solutions accelerate and sustain access by the
poor to needed goods and services; and/or employment and livelihoods
opportunities. In this year, the organization has participated in ground
breaking research and publications. KenInvest worked with the
UNCTAD to organize and prepare the Investment Policy Review (IPR)
for Kenya that resulted in its publication. When it comes to ‘Mineral’s
Potential towards Wealth Creation and Employment’, KenInvest was
among the leading facilitator institutions in the preparation of the
first ever mining conference and the report in this area. KenInvest
has also participated in preparation of the Investment Promotion and
Protection Agreements (IPPA), and Avoidance of Double Taxation
Agreements (DTA)together with other relevant ministries including
the following:-

1. France (DTA/IPPA) (Jan. 2006) – signed & awaiting ratification

drafting various documents, for example: The East African Investors

in the development of Lake Victoria Basin Initiative (Investment and
development potentials in the Lake Victoria Basin Commission).

Investor Services

The institution through this department has played a big role in


contributing to the economic growth rate which is now at 6.3 per
cent. This was through the institutions’ key role in attracting domestic
and international investors. During the financial year 2005/2006,
KenInvest licensed 99 (ninety nine) projects with an estimated planned
investment of KShs. 16.9 billion, and with potential employment of
11,972 people. In 2006/2007, 111 projects were processed with an
estimated capital of KShs. 82.9 billion, and potential employment of
13,175 people. Below is Table 3 showing an analysis and comparison
of these years.

The objective of aftercare services is a core function of this department;


to enhance retention and expansion of investments in Kenya. KenInvest
visited the actual project sites to verify the information contained in
project files, collected actual information on performance of projects,
and collected information on investor concerns and to advice
investors on other opportunities for re-investment such as expansion
and diversification. A total of 87 projects were visited in this financial
year. Over 260 applications were forwarded by the department to the
Immigration Department for approval.

Apart from the JKIA Liaison Office, we have a regional office in Eldoret
that covers the Western, Nyanza and the North Rift area.

Auditors’ Report and Financial Statement

Report of the Controller and Auditor General on the Financial Statements of


Kenya Investment Authority for the Year ended 30th June 2007.

I have audited the financial statements of Kenya Investment Authority for the year ended 30th June, 2007
set out on pages 4 to 10 which comprise the balance sheet as at 30th June, 2007, the income statement,
statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year then ended, and a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 14
of the Public Audit Act, 2003. I have obtained all the information and explanation which, to the best of my
knowledge and belief, were necessary for the purpose of the audit.

The Board’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements


The Board is responsible for the preparation of financial statements which give a true and fair view of the
Authority’s state of affairs and its operating results in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards. This responsibility includes: Designing, implementing and maintaining internal controls relevant
to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making
accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Responsibility of the Controller and Auditor General

My responsibility is to express an independent opinion on the financial statements based on the audit. The
audit was conducted in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require
compliance with ethical requirements and that the audit be planned and performed with a view to obtaining
reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgments, whether due to fraud
or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity’s
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the Authority’s internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. I believe the audit provides a reasonable basis for my
opinion.

Opinion

In my opinion, proper books of account have been kept and the accompanying financial statements give a
true and fair view of the state of the financial affairs of the Authority as at 30th June, 2007 and of its surplus
and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards
and comply with the Investment Promotion Act, 2004.
