The Act aims to ensure the sound management and financial stability of SACCOs, protecting member savings and promoting their growth.

Last month President William Ruto assented to the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating of Terrorism Financing Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2025.

The Bill amended the Sacco Societies Act (Cap. 490B) by empowering the Sacco Societies Regulatory Authority to regulate and supervise bodies under its purview for anti- money laundering, counter financing of terrorism and counter proliferation financing.
