This saw us launch branches in Electricity House \u2013 Nairobi, Waumini Plaza in Kisii, and at Greenwood City Mall in Meru. This has improved our branch network to twelve, as well as service points in Naivasha and Embu,\u201d CEO Gamaliel Hassan said on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>The society continued to meet the statutory financial requirement where the core capital to total assets ratio increased from 17.16 per cent to 17.22 per cent, which is above the statutory minimum of 10 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis growth is a testament to our commitment to sound financial management and prudent risk practices,\u201d chairman Joseph Siror said.<\/p>\n<p>He said the Sacco continued to support members in realising their financial goals, with a huge number of loans going into home ownership, education and business expansion.<\/p>\n<p>The two spoke during the Sacco\u2019s investor briefing in Nairobi.<\/p>\n<p>Hassan said going forward, the society\u2019s intention is to leverage the new core banking system \u201cto drive operational efficiency and deliver a superior member experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The board has recommended the payment of a first and final dividend of 15 per cent per share on fully paid-up shares as of December 31.<\/p>\n<p>It has also recommended payment of interest rebates on members\u2019 deposits at the rate of 11 per cent for the year under review, subject to requisite approvals.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the total pay-out for the two items will be Sh4.06 billion in 2023 compared to Sh3.56 billion in 2022.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
