Subscription Shares

This is the flagship account of the Association. A subscription share is an investment certificate that carries a future face value. This unique medium term investment account is designed to allow members to save for a specific future need. The matured share value can be put towards your children’s education, the down payment on a house, car or vacation expenses. Subscriptions shares can be paid for in advance either monthly, quarterly or half yearly.
