About Chamas in Kenya

A Chama is an informal savings and investment group popular in Kenya. Members contribute regularly and pool resources for investment or merry-go-round payouts. Registered Chamas can invest in MMFs, real estate, and SACCOs.

A Merry-Go-Round (MGR) is a rotation where each member receives the full pooled contribution in turns — effectively an interest-free group loan for each person.
