Deputy Governor Prof. Nuwagaba took part in the ceremonial signing of a Collaboration Agreement on the Greening Financial Systems Programme between the Bank of Uganda and the European Investment Bank (@EIB) at Kampala Serena Hotel today. The collaboration will enhance the BoU’s capacity to support supervised financial institutions in identifying, assessing, managing, and disclosing climate-related risks. “For Uganda,” @ProfNuwagaba said, “this can help mobilise the approximately US$28.1 billion climate-action financing needed by 2030.” He thanked the EIB, the European Union, and the Governments of Germany and Luxembourg for their support of Uganda’s efforts to build a greener, more resilient and sustainable financial system. “We must strengthen resilience without unnecessarily constraining access to finance. Our objective is a financial system that understands emerging risks, allocates capital into sustainable projects, and continues to finance productive activity,” Prof. Nuwagaba said. Uganda joins Kenya, Rwanda, Nigeria, and Ethiopia among the African countries currently receiving support under the Greening Financial Systems Programme.
