The regional hub for trade and finance, Kenya's business sector is one of Africa's most vibrant. It is the transport and broadband gateway to the landlocked countries of East Africa. The country is far less dependent on official development assistance than most other Sub-Saharan countries, aid amounting to only 4 percent of GDP.
