MTN MoMo Uganda, in partnership with Sanlam Investments East Africa, has launched Yinvesta, a unit trust investment product designed to make investing easy and accessible for all Ugandans. The launch was announced April 17.

With a minimum investment of just UGX 1,000, Yinvesta allows users to grow their money and earn up to 12% interest through a transparent, flexible platform.

Available via USSD (1657*1#) or the MoMo App, Yinvesta is a major step forward in financial inclusion, giving more Ugandans the tools to invest, save, and thrive.
