Is bigger the better? What of service delivery? It may be too big to be efficient.

@gathige what is your basis I thought it's Mwalimu national ; total assets 24.5 B , membership about 57000 (that's why they had plans to apply for licensing as a bank). www.mobile.nation.co.ke/...l/-/wo072nz/-/index.html
then ukulima; total assets 7.5 B , 32000 membership www.ukulimasacco.coop/index.php/finance-news and others subsidiaries then hiyo kina afyia stima ardhi wanafuata. @gathige am a member there(ukulima ) and you? so far Mwalimu are giving a good dividend.

It may be best to postpone joining a sacco (if you are not in one) for maybe a year. Also, it is important to know where your sacco has invested.

Jst my take.
Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.

@mnadii as usual try support the 1yr wait in your view or by rink . As for ministry related sacco's (Mwalimu ukulima afyia ardhi e.t.c) nearly all the money is loaned to members which is guaranteed safety but for the "kando" saccos indeed you have to know the management well and where they invest.

You can view those regulated by SASRA here.
http://www.sasra.go.ke/regulation/licensed-saccos#.U8oxIpSSyHc

From here you can review their latest financial statements from their website and review which meets your requirements in terms of return on savings, Loan processing and governance, membership, their strategic plan etc....

All the best

UNSACCO had decent returns too. For the year ending Dec 2013, they paid 20% dividend on share capital and 13.5% returns on deposits, that's a tidy sum.

For various loans they charge different rates. The lowest is 1.05% per month with the highest being 3% per month for FOSA advance loan or Festive season loans.

You can check their tariffs here
