The move is aimed at helping more Kenyans successfully transition into a sustainable, long, and happy retirement.<\/p>\n<p>In her keynote address at the awards ceremony, Old Mutual Head of Pension Christine Karoki noted that the future of retirement benefits in the country is hugely untapped as only about 20 per cent of Kenyans are saving adequately for retirement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The untapped market is vast, and most comprises people aged 35 and below who are faced with the uncertainty of the future. We also intend to leverage technology to help bring information closer to the people and instil financial discipline for them to make an informed decision&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Old Mutual also aims to leverage technology and big data analytics to identify and reach the untapped market of Kenyans aged 35 and below who face uncertainty about their financial futures.<\/p>\n<p>Kenya&#8217;s Pension Industry has grown to report at least Kes 1.5 trillion in funds under management as of December 2021, with about a third going to NSSF and the rest held by private schemes.<\/p>\n<p>Old Mutual&#8217;s efforts to expand its reach and provide diverse financial solutions aim to help more Kenyans secure their financial futures.<\/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.
