  "summary": "The SACCO Societies Regulatory Authority (SASRA) has reported that employers in Kenya failed to remit Sh3.92 billion deducted from workers' salaries for SACCO savings and loan repayments in 2025, affecting 104,331 members of regulated Savings and Credit Cooperative Societies (Saccos). This is a significant increase from 2024, where the unremitted funds were Sh3.49 billion and the affected members were 55,602. County governments and assemblies accounted for the largest share of the unremitted funds at Sh1.884 billion, followed by public universities and tertiary colleges at Sh725.91 million. The regulator has urged employers to fulfill their remittance obligations promptly to safeguard members' savings and maintain confidence in the SACCO sector.",
