A loan guarantee in SACCOs is an arrangement where members agree to be collectively responsible for a loan taken by another member. If the borrower fails to meet their repayment obligations, the co-guarantors step in to cover the outstanding amount. This system is essential for reducing risk for the SACCO and ensuring that members have access to credit with minimal barriers.

Many members find that being part of a SACCO holds them accountable to their savings goals because they have a structured plan to follow. Seeing other members achieve their goals can also inspire you to stay disciplined and focused.

Interest on deposits refers to the return you earn on the funds you save within a SACCO. Just like traditional banks, SACCOs reward members who deposit their money by paying them interest. This interest serves as an incentive for members to save regularly, contributing to both their personal financial growth and the SACCOโ€™s operational health.

Interest on deposits in SACCOs is typically calculated on the balance of your savings over a given period. The rate of interest may vary depending on the SACCOโ€™s financial performance, its policies, and the type of savings account you hold.

- Member contributions. Each member deposits money into their SACCO savings account. The amount and frequency can vary depending on the memberโ€™s financial goals and the SACCOโ€™s minimum requirements.

- Interest rate determination. SACCOs set their interest rates based on market conditions, profitability, and financial strategies. The rate is often communicated at the beginning of the financial year or during the Annual General Meeting (AGM).

- Accrual of interest. Interest on deposits is accrued periodically (monthly, quarterly, or annually) and credited to the memberโ€™s savings account.

- Compounding benefits. Depending on the SACCOโ€™s policy, interest can be compounded, meaning that the interest earned in one period may be added to the principal for the next, resulting in higher total earnings over time.

Earning interest on deposits is a straightforward way to grow your savings without additional effort.

Financial growth. By consistently earning interest on deposits, your money grows over time, contributing to long-term financial stability.

Wealth accumulation. Compounded interest can significantly boost your savings, especially if youโ€™re saving for long-term goals like buying property, starting a business, or retirement.

FOSA is the banking arm of a SACCO, designed to offer members convenient, day-to-day banking services.

Unlike the Back Office Service Activity (BOSA), which primarily handles loans and savings accounts, FOSA functions like a traditional bank branch. It enables SACCO members to deposit money, withdraw cash, pay bills, and even access salary advances, all while maintaining the unique cooperative principles of member ownership and shared benefits.
