Across Kenya, billions in unclaimed financial assets—forgotten bank accounts, lost shares, unclaimed dividends, and silent inheritances—remain out of reach. Most people are unaware of this wealth’s existence, let alone how to recover it.
Unclaimed Property in Kenya – The History, Causes, and Path to Reunification uncovers the powerful story behind Kenya’s movement to recover unclaimed assets. Joe and Karen take readers inside the creation of the Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority, revealing how a passionate team confronted a national challenge and built a system designed to reunite citizens with their rightful wealth.
Blending history, policy insight, and on-the-ground experience, this book explains why many assets become unclaimed, the cultural and institutional barriers that hinder reunification, and the reforms necessary to accelerate change. It also provides practical, easy-to-follow guidance for individuals, families, and organisations seeking to find and claim lost money.
With a global perspective and a compelling look at one of the country’s most overlooked financial issues, this book is an essential resource for readers interested in financial empowerment, governance, and the rediscovery of hidden wealth.
