Kenya's Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) on Tuesday said it has made it easy for institutional investors to repatriate capital from the country.

The NSE said that it has cleared reported delays in its ability to facilitate the investors to repatriate capital from Kenya, enabling it to receive an upgrade on its classification from "restricted" to "pass" by the Financial Times and Stock Exchange (FTSE) Russell Index Governance Board.
