I like that they try to be innovative, for example, their focus on chamas and SMEs (remember their TV show Unaitas Chamas?). They are trying to be a bank and the moratorium put by CBK slowed them down (not Unaitas' fault however). I also like that their dividends are 'low' therefore sustainable compared to other saccos which give 12%-15% but have rumors of mismanagement; the high dividends are meant to attract more to the slaughterhouse.

That being said, I feel they should really try to be a 'proper' bank and leave behind sacco tendencies. They are not Metropolitan sacco or other those funny saccos. For example, the new CEO is Martin Muhoho but Tony Mwangi has never updated his Linkedin profile that reads he is still CEO. If you google, for a minute you will be confused who really is the CEO. Small stuff but very annoying and tells you a lot about how they run their things. The financial reports are never availed on time and you almost have to beg to get them.

I still have my shares, most of which were from reinvesting the dividends but the last two years nimekula hizo dividends. All my money will go to NSE/other investments until post-2022 as I have more faith there than Unaitas.

@xtina: I'm missing FY2016 and FY2017 financial reports. Are you in a position to share?

It is important for unaitas to offer more transparency.
How will we know whether the business is doing well or not.
They could easily pay dividends from sale of unlimited shares?

Unfortunately due to quarantine manenos I'm stuck somewhere without access to my personal laptop but I do have them, all the way from 2014. But you can try requesting from the physical branch's customer care or email them (which is a completely ridiculous way of getting financial statements).

I just need some cash to complete a project. This is basically offloading dividend that I have been reinvesting since 2014. I will still remain with quite a good amount of shares.

Greetings! On another note, has anyone dealt with UNAITAS? How would you rate them as regarding taking a development/construction loan from them as compared to a bank?
Thanks!

What do you mean? Dividends were paid on 01/04/22. Check your dividends account. A text was also sent on the same date.

Monday morning rant: Shall we give Unaitas a gold medal in testing people's patience?! Where are the promised returns, turning into a bank and all that? Granted they have consistently paid 7% dividends even during the COVID year but Bonds have been delivering double that. Does Unaitas even make any sense?

In all fairness they always pay on the 1st of April. Question is, do they get to 9% or fall below the 7? Nī gutee
