Savings

A savings cooperative, run to the shilling.

Money that people trust you with is the one place where a spreadsheet error is not a small thing. Enkya is built so the record keeping is exact and every member can see it.

What it is

A savings cooperative, run to the shilling.

Members save together, and the pooled money does more than it could have done sitting in four hundred separate accounts. That is the whole idea, and it is older than any of us.

What is new is the record keeping. Every contribution, every balance, every payout, reconciled and visible, so trust rests on evidence rather than on personality.

What running it taught me

When you are holding other people money, accuracy is not a preference, it is the product. Statistics training earns its keep here more than anywhere else I work.

It is also why module six of the office course exists. Knowing exactly what you must never paste into a public AI tool is not a footnote when the data is somebody savings.
