As you move to the Soko, what would you wany to know about Rafiki?

They are a licenced DTMF, They are about 2 years old, they are wholly owned by Chase Bank, They have brances in Nairobi and environs, Mombasa and are expanding.

Chase Bank established Rafiki to enable them a certain segment that cannot be served in banks due to certain restrictions within yhe banking act.

E.g You may wish to buy a car that is 10 years old.Most banks will not accept the log book due to age because they are advised to accept Max 8 years.Rafiki is not restricted and can use the logbook.Or you maybe having land that has a certificate as opposed to title deed and wish yo use the dame as collateral. A bank may not but Rafiki and indeed other MFIs can.

They come highly recommended.

I would think they have sufficient collateral for that kind of a loan.Give us the full facts @vastcapital & explain the con.
