Mombasa, Kenya – The Kenya National Police DT Sacco (KNPDTS) has set a target to grow its targets to over KSh 100 billion in five years.
The leading cooperative in Kenya and Africa posted up to KSh 66 billion in assets for the financial year ending December 31, 2025.
What earns Kenya National Police DT Sacco growth
Speaking during the KNPDTS leadership training in Mombasa, which kicked off on Tuesday, January 13, the National chairman, David Mategwa, who doubles as KUSCCO chair, said the Sacco depends on technology to meet members’ needs and expectations.
Mategwa cited the members currently serving in Haiti, noting that the system put in place by the society enables them to transact from the diaspora “as if they were still in camps here in Kenya”.
“All that is making the growth of this organisation is about technology. We are able to serve our members very efficiently, including those in the diaspora.
“Our members based in Haiti are using the same technology to get financial services as if they were still here in Kenya. Members get services wherever they are, and that’s how technology drives our business,” said Mategwa.
What govt is doing to improve Sacco growth
Co-operative and MSME Development Cabinet Secretary (CS) Wycliffe Oparanya emphasised the Sacco Society (Amendment) Act 2025, which aims at improving regulation and stability in the sector.
Oparanya noted that the Act will protect member deposits, urging SACCOs to strengthen their leadership and emulate Kenya National Police DT Sacco.
The CS revealed that through the Act, cooperatives will be able to merge and operate under a Deposit Guarantee Fund (DGF) for member protection.
“And we are hopeful that by the end of this year, we are going to launch the amended Sacco Act and sensitise members on its provisions to ease mergers,” said Oparanya.
The KNPDTSevent was also graced by the Nairobi County Director of Co-operatives, Ms. Dolphine Aremo, Starehe Sub-County Co-operative Officer, Ms. Rose Mwithiga, alongside our Board of Directors, CEO Solomon Atsiaya, MBS, management, and staff.
