The situation required prudent and responsive strategic management, at all times. Operating Environment At the start of the year Uganda faced twin challenges. Externally it was confronted by steep rises in the cost of crude oil and refined products, and consequentially in the cost of imported raw materials and manufactured goods. Domestically the economy was suffering from excess liquidity, attributed to the distribution of funds during the Presidential elections and associated activities. Combined they would, if unchecked, put Uganda at the risk of severe and upward spiralling inflation. The situation was further aggravated by extreme foreign exchange rate volatility. As early as January 2011 the Bank of Uganda injected US$ 20 million I am delighted to be able to report to try to stabilize the exchange rate. Despite this and subsequent interventions that despite the challenging and the shilling continued to weaken throughout the year. From a previous stable a negative macro and micro average of UGX2300 against the dollar it fell to UGX2900. This was only a few economic environments in which shillings off the rates formerly associated with the Euro or the pound sterling. Orient has had to operate, we have achieved a significant Uganda is an import dependent country for fuel and other key items. It therefore improvement in performance. remained vulnerable throughout the year, to externally generated inflationary pressures. These were exacerbated by drought in much of the country which The Bank posted a profit, after reduced farm yields and pushed up food prices. This bitter cocktail fuelled tax, in 2011 of UGX 20.19bn, headline inflation to reach 30% in November with core inflation at 29%, a significant increase over the compared to the BOU target of 5%. previous year. To counter exchange rate volatility, increasing inflation and excess liquidity the BOU imposed a tight monetary policy. The main component of this was the progressive increase in the Central Bank Rate to 23%. This in turn led to a major increase in interbank rates and very high lending rates. It is likely that the BOU may maintain a strict monetary policy until the economy is stabilised and inflation reduced to manageable levels. There is some success as inflation rates have fallen albeit alongside a significant slowdown in lending to commercial investment and domestic consumption, a significant increase in default risk and a decline in deposits as disposable income is reduced. This environment poses a major challenge to banks including Orient Bank, to refocus their business on non-lending activity revenue generation. Operating Results I am delighted to be able to report that despite the challenging and a negative macro and micro economic environments in which Orient Bank has had to Orient Bank Limited 9 Annual Report 2011 Chairman’s Statement message - continued operate, we have achieved a significant improvement in performance. The Bank posted a profit, after tax, in 2011 of UGX 20.185bn, a significant increase compared to the previous year. The Bank also recorded steady growth in other key areas: Increase in Total assets from UGX 362bn to UGX 435.1bn Increase In Deposits from UGX 290bn to UGX 332bn Increase in Loans and Advances from UGX 199.4bn to UGX 217.4bn Increase in Shareholders’ Fund from 53.8bn to UGX 73.9 bn The above results were all achieved within a growth profile designed The BOU required commercial to ensure an overall positive performance.
