How fresh is AMKA's data?
Not every financial product changes on the same schedule. AMKA labels current market data differently from annual declarations, periodic performance reports and reference snapshots.
| Category | Status | Latest tracked context | AMKA treatment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Money Market Funds | Current published comparison | Broad comparison mostly 14 Oct 2026; individual tracked rows can be newer | Verified positive rows can appear in comparisons; source date stays visible. |
| Treasury Bills | Current verified | CBK auction snapshot · 19 Oct 2026 | 91, 182 and 364-day auction rates shown with CBK source. |
| CBR / KESONIA / FX | Current / recent official data | CBR 7 Oct; KESONIA 19 Oct; USD/KES 21 Oct 2026 | Official CBK indicators are dated individually. |
| Special Funds | Reference snapshots | Mostly Sep 2026 tracked factsheet/provider figures | Past or published performance is not presented as a guaranteed yield. |
| Fixed Income Funds | Verification pending | No like-for-like independently verified current set | AMKA withholds unverified current percentages from the comparison page. |
| SACCOs | Annual reference | 2025 declarations / FY2025 reference data | Historical snapshot is labelled. Unverified tracked rows are excluded from the live verified board. |
| REITs | Periodic reference | FY2025 / H1 2026 performance context | Yield and NAV measures are labelled by period; not treated as live prices. |
| Bank deposits & loans | Reference snapshot | Published bank/CBK datasets are less frequent than market rates | Pages show snapshot period and direct readers to verify current bank pricing. |
| Pensions | Periodic sector data | RBA / industry reporting cycle | Sector and scheme-performance context is not presented as a live rate. |
| Taxes | Rule / official-reference data | Current KRA and Kenya-law references used where available | Rules can change; source links remain visible. |
| Insurance | Regulator/product reference | Dated IRA/product examples | Examples are not rankings or recommendations. |
Market-sensitive data
MMFs, Treasury Bills, FX and similar data are reviewed more frequently because the numbers can move quickly.
Reporting-cycle data
Pensions, REITs and fund performance may only be comparable when a provider or regulator publishes a new report.
Declarations
SACCO dividends and rebates are normally annual declarations, so AMKA does not label them as live market rates.
AMKA's publication rule
A newer number is not automatically a better number. AMKA prefers a dated, attributable figure whose meaning is clear. Where evidence is incomplete or periods are not comparable, the site should say so rather than fill the gap with an unverified percentage.
