Nope. At the end of the year wanjiku would have paid about 3500 for a loan of 86450, that is if she takes a loan each month.

The facts are very clear. Numbers don't lie. 48% p.a is far away out of proportion disguised as one-off commitment fee to defeat the new law of interest rate cap. John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”

Try to annualize the loan adn the interest. Wanjiku has not borrowed 7500*12=90,000 but has only borrowed 7,500 annually and paid an interest of 3500 annually If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

48% still better than 90% by mshwari, remember these loans are mostly for emergencies and there is a likelihood of not taking it on a monthly basis. The point is Wanjiku was to be locked out of credit facilities because she is too risky but this has not happened. People are really waiting to say' I told you ' If Wanjiku gets an emergency once a year or borrows in small chunks of 500to 7500= pa, what is the annualised rate? punda amecheka

Whatever you are trying to explain is not conciding with the actual situation on the ground. What I outlined above is the very simple basic and authentic situation and not theory..Have a look again and let us have your own calculations to disagree with mine. Quote:@guru267...wewe ulisomea hesabu wapi?
Let us look at your fallacy...
In September 2016 @newfarer takes a loan of kshs 7500 and pays kshs 293.25 being interest totalling kshs 7500.00 in payment after one month..
in October 2016 he will take another loan of kshs 7206.75 and pay kshs 293.25 in interest again totaling kshs 7500.00 in payment after another month.
In November 2016 another one of kshs 7206.75 at kshs 293.25 as interest.
Assuming that @newfarer will be taking a loan on a monthly basis, after one year @newfarer will have borrowed kshs 7206.75 x 12 = kshs 86,481.00 and the total interest will be kshs 293.25 x 12 = kshs 3519.00 for the year.
therefore average interest rate for newfarer alone on money borrowed in one year will be (3519/86,481) x 100% = 4.069%
Let me also remove that false reasoning that people are peddling here about mshwari loans at 7.5% per month interest adds to 90% per year...this is total rubbish!!! Why?
I borrow kshs 6000.00 at 7.5% interest or kshs 450.00 after one month.
In one year, I will have borrowed a total of kshs 6000.00 x 12 = 72,000.00 and the total interest will be kshs 450.00 x 12 = kshs 5400.00.
Average interest rate that has been charged on all the moneys borrowed within the year is (5400/72,000) x 100% = 7.5% for the year.
Actually in both the cases Wanjiku is benefitting immensely, only that KCB Mpesa is lower in interest. ...besides, the presence of a safe alone does not signify that there is money inside...

At no time will you have the lumpsum amount together so the calculation is not right. Essentially, some of the money loaned in subsequent months includes the interest paid while servicing earlier loans. With the monthly loan of 6K you will have paid 4950 in the 11th month which means the bank will just add 1050 in the 12th month to give you 6K. Truth forever on the scaffold
