In case you are wondering why the @BOU_Official has raised the Cash Reserve Requirement (in a panic move) twice (in March and September) since my first warning of excess money supply in November 2025, read my #moneystory chart, which tracks monthly growth in overall liquidity in Uganda.
The growth in money supply has been above sustainable productive capacity for nine (9) consecutive months end July 2026. Across that period, money supply has averaged 18.0%/yr compared to the desired growth of about 11.4%/yr.
The Economics Students Talk Series (TESTS) episode 042 brings the students perspective on Uganda’s 10-Fold growth strategy: Assessing its feasibility as a framework for driving economic growth.

What happens if the market available is for unskilled casual workers that may perhaps need language skills, precaution awareness, and related country laws? I warned on NBS Television that government involvement in labor externalization must be a very careful and thoughtful approach, or else the unintended results will be bad. #NBSUpdates #NBSLiveAt9

A decision is coming! What could it mean for you?
Whether you run a business, manage a household, have a loan, plan to borrow, or simply want to understand where the economy is headed, the Monetary Policy Statement is worth paying attention to.
Inflation. Interest rates. Borrowing. Fuel. Food. The decisions made today can shape the choices we make tomorrow.
Join us on Thursday, 13 August 2026, as the Governor reads the Monetary Policy Statement for August 2026 and unpacks what it means for you.
Stay tuned.

The quantity of money must be on the central bank dashboard. If it is not there, central bankers will be as ignorant and dangerous as people who drive cars without looking at the speedometer, per Tim Congdon (Money and Inflation at the time of COVID, p.260)

Why does the Bank of Uganda exist, and how does its work affect your everyday life?
The Bank’s strategy is anchored in a clear purpose: maintaining price stability, promoting a sound financial system, supporting economic stability, and contributing to Uganda’s socio-economic transformation.
In Episode 20 of BOU CONNECTs, Mrs Prisca Rwamahe explains how strategy keeps the Bank focused on the priorities that matter most to the public.
