Public enterprise in Kenya: What works, what doesn't, and why

Central to the development strategies of virtually all the sub-Saharan economies, public enterprises are nonetheless perceived as inefficient and unprofitable. Barbara Grosh examines the public enterprise system in Kenya and shows that, while average performance has indeed been poor, there has been a broad range of results—from excellent to abysmal—and many firms have performed well for long periods. Grosh uses four indicators (profitability, efficiency, prices paid to suppliers, and consumer prices) to assess which firms performed well, which had problems, and when and why those problems developed. Covering 1963-1988, data is provided for seventeen firms in the agricultural sector, four in finance, seven in transport and communications, and five in development finance. In addition, thirty publicly owned manufacturing firms are compared with forty private ones.
