The Kenya National Social Security Fund and the Rwanda Social Security Board (RSSB) recorded strong financial performance in the year 2025.
The RSSB announced that it posted a profit of Rwf 413 billion in 2025 (approximately Ugx 1 trillion), a 15.6% increase from the previous year, according to RSSB Director General Régis Rugemanshuro.
Rugemanshuro also told the Rwandan Parliament Committee on Social Affairs Committee that the RSSB’s Assets Under Management have increased from about Rwf 1 trillion five years ago to Rwf 3 trillion (about Ugx 7.3 trillion) as of January 2026, following interventions to improve investments and operations.
Across the East in Kenya, the Chief Executive Officer, David Koros, announced that NSSF Kenya had recorded Kenya Shillings 105 billion (about Ugx 2.8 trillion) in investment returns, compared to Kenya Shillings 41.7 billion (about Ugx 1.15 trillion) the previous year. As a result of the stellar performance, NSSF Kenya declared a record interest rate of 17% on its members’ savings, an increase from 11% the previous year.
NSSF Kenya Assets Under Management increased to Kenya shillings 670 billion, buoyed by an increase in member contributions following the implementation of the NSSF Act of 2013 that increased NSSF deductions, for the third year running.
Koros also announced an ambitious target to grow NSSF Kenya’s Assets Under Management (AUM) to Kenya shillings 1 trillion (about Ugx 27.6 trillion) by June 2027.
