TNT DT Sacco has reduced dividends and share capital payouts for the year ended December 31, 2025, following new regulatory limits and increased provisioning requirements in the sector.
The Sacco attributed the move to a directive issued by the Sacco Societies Regulatory Authority, which capped returns and required additional provisions on savings linked to the Kenya Union of Savings and Credit Co-operatives and related claims.
Under the revised structure, returns on member deposits were cut from 9 percent to 4.5 percent, while dividends on share capital were reduced from 11 percent to 5.5 percent.
“The delay in disbursement of the remaining dividends was due to a regulatory directive capping return at 4.5 per cent on deposits and 5.5 per cent on share capital,” the Sacco said in a statement.
The adjustments come amid heightened regulatory scrutiny in the Sacco sector, with authorities tightening controls to address liquidity risks and bolster financial stability.
