Why the LKR to KES rate changes
The Sri Lankan Rupee to Kenyan Shilling exchange rate is not fixed. It moves with supply and demand for each currency, interest-rate decisions by the central banks that issue them, inflation, commodity prices and the general appetite for risk in global markets. Most emerging-market currencies are priced through the US dollar, so a strong or weak dollar day usually shows up in the LKR to KES rate too.
The rate on this page is the mid-market rate: the midpoint between buy and sell prices on the global market, updated about every 30 minutes. Banks and transfer services add a spread and fees on top, so the LKR to KES rate you are offered will usually be lower than the figure here. Use it as the benchmark to judge any quote.
