Postbank, officially known as the Kenya Post Office Savings Bank, has been a cornerstone of the Kenyan banking system since its establishment in 1910. Wholly owned by the Government of Kenya and operating under the Ministry of Finance, Postbank is dedicated to mobilizing savings for national development. Its unique regulatory framework, governed by the Kenya Post Office Savings Bank Act, exempts depositors from paying tax on interest income—a rare feature in the Kenyan banking sector.
With a robust network of 87 branches spread across the country, Postbank provides accessible and affordable banking services to Kenyans from all walks of life. It primarily serves individuals looking to save, offering tax-exempt savings accounts, making it a popular option for small-scale savers.
Key Features of Postbank
- Tax-Free Savings: One of the most notable advantages of saving with Postbank is that interest income earned is exempt from tax. This sets it apart from other banks, which are regulated by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) and require customers to pay taxes on earned interest.
- Government-Owned: As a fully government-owned entity, Postbank is involved in several national development initiatives, particularly those that aim to boost the savings culture among Kenyans.
- Regulation: Unlike most commercial banks, Postbank is not regulated by the CBK but operates under its own legislation, the Kenya Post Office Savings Bank Act.
