About Us
Financial Sector Deepening Uganda (FSD Uganda) is an independent not-for-profit company committed to promoting greater access to financial services in Uganda. FSD Uganda seeks to develop a more inclusive financial sector with a focus on low-income individuals. We support innovation, conduct research, and support regulatory processes that shape the financial sector. FSD Uganda is currently funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office FCDO (formerly known as Department for International Development (DFID)/ UKaid) and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and is part of a network of nine Financial Sector Deepening organisations working across sub-Saharan Africa. Looking ahead, FSD Uganda will leverage its early successes to drive up demand of relevant financial products and services across key sectors to help improve incomes and create more economic opportunities.
Our vision: “To promote access to quality, low-cost financial products and services for marginalised groups while creating opportunities for Ugandans to be economically self-sufficient.”
Our mission: “To promote improved inclusive financial markets that foster job creation, reduce poverty and improve Uganda’s competitiveness”.
