Knowledge Base

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers regarding membership, shares, loan requirements, and governance.

No. While founded by educators, JMT SACCO is open to workers, farmers, entrepreneurs, parents, and all eligible community members who commit to disciplined saving and responsible credit.

Shares represent non-withdrawable ownership equity. They can be transferred or sold to another eligible member upon exit, but are not withdrawable on demand like ordinary savings accounts.

With reducing-balance interest, interest is calculated only on the remaining unpaid principal each month rather than on the original total. As you repay, your interest cost decreases monthly.

Through strict governance: annual AGM audits, independent supervisory committee oversight, verified collateral/guarantor policies, and secure digital ledger administration.
