What the offer document says

The terms below come from Wekeza Maisha Fund's own offer document — the minimums, loads, lock-ins and settlement windows that decide what this fund actually costs you to enter and leave.

Structure
Open-ended balanced Unit Linked Insurance Plan (ULIP) unit trust scheme with a 10-year plan membership tenure
Objective
To empower the investing community by inculcating regular saving habits and generating long-term capital appreciation, while offering insurance cover benefits and sensitizing the need for life insurance in Tanzania.
Asset allocation
Debt Instruments (60%-100%); Equity (listed ordinary shares) (0%-40%)
Minimum initial investment
TZS 1,000,000
Entry load
Nil (units issued at face value TZS 100 during Initial Sale, at prevailing NAV thereafter, with no upfront charge either way)
Exit load
2% of NAV per unit on partial repurchase (only possible after the 5-year lock-in has elapsed); value paid at maturity is NAV without any exit load. A minimum service charge of TZS 500 per transaction applies. On early termination of plan membership (e.g. non-payment of Regular Contributions) during the lock-in, a service charge of not less than 2% of NAV applies instead.
Management fee
1.50% of NAV per annum
Tax treatment
Interest Income of the Scheme is taxable at 10% withholding tax, which is final; Income from dividends of listed companies whose shares are held by the scheme is taxable at 5% instead of the usual 10%; Capital gains arising from sale of listed equities and sale/maturity of listed bonds at the DSE held by the scheme are tax exempt
