We have a challenge of ensuring that agricultural credit is made available to a wider sector of Uganda’s population since it’s agricultural. I must say that while Stanbic Bank has come up with additional program to the Finance Minister’s agricultural credit program, I still want to see other banks come up and offer more credit.
I am very committed to a liberal financial system and I am not persuaded that edicts about interest rates work. Let’s work together and make sure that financial inclusion is expanded. Let make sure that any attempts by some of the remaining elements in government who want to control interest rates are not given the chance to do so.
