Doesn't this change of tack feel like a sense of deja vu? Reminds me of the Kenyan banks' change of attitude towards the income earners at the bottom of the food chain before Equity Bank showed up in town with their model of banking the unbankable. Now, just like in the aftermath following Equity Bank's game changer, Centum is back in the streets hawking their hitherto elitist MMF product in the same manner top tier banks had to eat humble pie and started hawking loan products to Average Joe in the streets!
How was Centum's MMF elitist?

The minimum amount has been 1M and topup 100k with 1M being the minimum holding amount. I think this is what @Balaa meant as "elitist".

Thanks. What about the others eg CIC, Amana, Cytonn, etc?

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Even in the arrangement proposed for boda boda operators,they won't contribute their ksh.50 directly.
Instead they will contribute to the investment/sacco which will then pool the funds and open a single account with Nabo capital for onward investment.
