National Government employees can typically borrow up to 4.5x their monthly salary. For example, if you earn KES 100,000 per month, you could qualify for up to KES 400000 depending on the bank.
Interest rates for National Government employees start from 12% per annum, which is lower than standard personal loans due to the check-off arrangement that reduces default risk for banks.
Most banks process National Government check-off loans within 24-48 hours once all documents are submitted. Some banks offer same-day disbursement for existing customers.
No, National Government check-off loans are unsecured. The check-off arrangement where repayments are deducted directly from your salary serves as security for the bank.
