If they partner with a firm like CIC they can definitely do it. CIC has been offering over 9% consistently on the money market fund so 10% is definitely doable with a few extra T&C.

Or safcom can setup a similar organization to whatever CIC uses in the back office and save some costs


How is CIC doing? The 10% p.a is just a bait...


Bait?

They've been consistent over many years... Clarify 'bait'.. Link perhaps?

It's a tragedy...good thing we have jailed the culprits...assets and bank accounts frozen...too bad we dont have the death penalty...small countries like Namibia are vulnerable to state capture...
Not necessarily so. Look at small (population) countries like Singapore and Denmark vs Nigeria, RSA and Kenya.

10% is quite a big promise... They should probably wait for businesses to finish responding to the interest cap changes before committing

It's a good tech initiative, but will probably exacerbate the money markets. Mid and lower tier banks and microfinances will find it harder to attract deposits, leading to a rise in lending rates. Not sure what the contracts behind the product is in order to better anticipate market responses.

Its bait for sure. You need to be an investor to know.

Bank at the back-end likely to be NCBA and/or KCB.

Agree... Safaricom sacco does not have any products that can offer such returns at the scale that this would need. Just because Safaricom sacco has that brand name on it does not mean they are related at all, I understand it's a very small (relatively) independent operation with little to no ties with safcom company itself
