Foreward The Popular Version is based on a master set of data on the 2016 Economic Survey publication report that has been compiled by the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS). The popular version is an easy to read publication with highlights on economic performance and indicators in 2015. The Economic Survey is an annual publication of the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS). It pre-sents socio-economic highlights of the economy for the last five years. The report forms an important source of input into the budgeting process, planning, monitoring and policy formulation processes. At KNBS we remain committed to keeping you informed. Feel free to seek any further clarification on the information provided from our office.

ANNUAL WORLD INFLATION RATES
World real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth decelerated to 3.1 per cent in 2015 from 3.4 per cent in 2014. This was as a result of low commodity prices, weaker capital flows, subdued global trade and increasing financial market volatility particularly in emerging markets and developing economies. The economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) slowed from 5.1 per cent GDP growth in 2014 to 3.8 per cent growth in 2015. However, there was a slowed growth of 3.4 per cent in 2015 from 5.8 per cent in 2014 in the East Africa Community (EAC). This was mainly asso-ciated with political instability in Burundi and uncertainties associated with general election in Tanzania and Uganda.

Mining The overall value of mineral output rose by 14.7 per cent from KSh 21.billion in 2014 to KSh 24.2 billion in 2015. The increase was mainly attributed to high earnings from titanium minerals of illmenite, rutile and zircon in the export markets. Earring from titanium
ores accounted for more than half of the minerals value.
