Glad to see Zimele finally taking on to social media. They had been at the top for ages and were the favourite of many Kenyans. But they got lazy at the top with a laisser faire attitude towards customers. For instance they changed from money market fund to fixed income fund and didn't bother to fully educate their customers on the what or the why of this move.
For the proverb, I would say for water to burn the house, it has to be solid. Anything that fire heats up burns the house. The only reason water does not is because it evaporates before it has the chance to. Relating this to finance, for one to attain financial freedom, they need concrete solid plans. Otherwise, money can go out as fast as it comes in. Great proverb choice, CT!
Firstly, you might not be having the minimum amount that the Govt requires you to put into the bond. Therefore they help in pooling the funds and buying the bonds for you and many others. Secondly again by pooling the various resources, they can diversify the investments destinations. Some into Treasury bonds and bills, stocks, off shore markets, etc.
@georgeodhiambo598 such like minded individuals can NOT pool together and meet minimum investment numbers? Lastly why do you include unnecessary/junk things like stocks & offshore markets(stocks in foreign jurisdictions) when @jameswanjohi2454 states they want to go direct?
May they are better in other things but the 2 countries are now way near kenya bonds in interest . In Singapore u deposit dollars and the rate is 2.6%on average whereas in uae is dirhams and the previous rate was4.2%. If u do your calculations on interest Kenya is the best place to invest... Lets take advantage kenyans.
Ghana defaulted and had to reschedule their internal debts. Those who were holding treasury bonds had to take a cut of 30%. The principle amount of the bond was to be given without interest after 3yrs
You guys failed to ask true valid questions... money market fund returns of 9-11% minus 15% withholding tax, minus inflation rate is the true return on investment. Government risk of default via debt distress exchange?? What's the true cost of capital?
For risk, if the Government crashes then all other financial institutions go into distress and crash. Unless you diversify offshore. However, those investments may require large investments.
The caption unit trusts are better than bills and bonds is misleading. You cannot separate unit trust from bills and bonds, if there were no bills and bonds you wouldn't have the unit trust.
The government won't slow down internal borrowing in a recession that we currently have. Besides these unit trusts can invest in commercial paper and fixed deposits.
@@kimanzimwenga9365 The Govt will not slow down on internal borrowings. The budgetary deficit is still huge and sources from external borrowing are slackening. Terms from those sources are too painful for Kenya to bear. The Govt will continue to borrow locally. Secondly, if eventually, the Govt loses appetite for local borrowings, then yields on the same products will fall and funds will start flowing towards other competing investment destinations like stocks. Then the fall in yields from Treasury bills and bonds will release more funds at lower interest rates into the economy leading to more activity in the sector.

The expense ratio, charges by the fund management is very high compared to other products. It eats in a significant amount of your interest over the time of your investment. You can simply do a comparison with direct investments to Bonds, ETFs and Indexed Funds.
In Ghana, investors were deducted 15% of their investment when the government defaulted. What is the likelihood of the Govt of Kenya defaulting and people losing funds in MMF, tbills and bonds?
@@steo9285 You missed the point. The Ghanaian case as I heard was that of deduction of 15% of the VALUE of investment. That was their way of handling their cash crunch situation. What you are referring is a TAX deduction on EARNINGS from the bond investment. Very different issues.
@georgeodhiambo598 Things have to be extremely bad for it to come to that for one. plus, there is a big difference between domestic debt to the government, and the international one they get from the likes of IMF etc. The Consequences are different if they default.

I love the Transparency in Zimele, they send the Statement every Month and clearly shows the interest earned.
The unit trust are basically the bonds brokers that's why there interest cannot outrun the bonds if it does then they are offf to scam you.
Such a great conversation here.
This is needed.

Wow pinned
Hot water doesn't burn the house - it means "what bad things people say about you, shouldn't destroy your standing, as a person".
Very true always try and leave within a bugdet that you can manage, this is one way of managing money.
A flamboyant explanation.
Wonderful.
Very well explained the issues and the procedures of treasury bills and treasury bonds.
Very informative, Thank you
The comment section is more educative than even the presenter.

So spicy explanation 🎉 4:14
Why should I give you my money to invest in govt paper and take your cut. Why can’t I just go directly.

Very true money can make someone leave a comfortable live or a bad life.

Unit trust is a high risk investment and its easy to loose money unless the investing compared insure it,

Diversify Globally with Standard Chartered Bank or HSBC
TradFi's 2% management fees are ridiculous
For risk, if the Government crashes then all other financial institutions go into distress and crash. Unless you diversify offshore. However, those investments may require large investments.
Not forgetting the management fee

But MMF also normaly invest in bonds
Where will the unit trusts be investing then money when the government slows down internal borrowing?
The government won't slow down internal borrowing in a recession that we currently have. Besides these unit trusts can invest in commercial paper and fixed deposits.

What's the difference between unit trusts and mmf?
Mmf is a unit trust
When 70%of revenue going to debt and borrowing from peter to pay paul is not sustainable.
while converting this video avoid this format its so interlacing its like avchd format
.. stacking USD stablecoins at 5% is the best unit trust that's at your fingertips
Put where to get 5 percent?
Are deposits with Unit fund managers insured in case of collapse of the fund manager firm? For example, in case of collapse of Zimele.
They are held by a custodian, a commercial bank. I guess thats where the risk is if the bank collapses.
Yes. They are regulated by CMA and the custodian is regulated by CBK.
Why does unit trust reduce the principal amount invested unlike the money market?
Money management is important or vital.
The expense ratio, charges by the fund management is very high compared to other products. It eats in a significant amount of your interest over the time of your investment. You can simply do a comparison with direct investments to Bonds, ETFs and Indexed Funds.
In Ghana, investors were deducted 15% of their investment when the government defaulted. What is the likelihood of the Govt of Kenya defaulting and people losing funds in MMF, tbills and bonds?
15% tax is deducted as of today in all these. The only exception is on the infrastructure bond, which has always been tax-free in Kenya.
@@steo9285 You missed the point. The Ghanaian case as I heard was that of deduction of 15% of the VALUE of investment. That was their way of handling their cash crunch situation. What you are referring is a TAX deduction on EARNINGS from the bond investment. Very different issues.
