The modernization of agriculture is a key development priority for Uganda but this will not be possible without improving the provision of a wide range of financial services to farmers, agro processors and traders. One of the most striking features of agricultural finance in 2011 was the very rapid growth of loans and advances to agriculture by supervised financial institutions (banks, credit institutions and deposit taking microfinance institutions). New advances to agriculture grew by 60 percent in 2011, albeit from a relatively small base. Much of this increase was a result of a substantial expansion in post –harvest lending by commercial banks, with loans secured by warehouse receipts, which is testament to the fact that the efforts made in recent years to reform policy and legislation related to warehouse receipts and to undertake capacity building in this area have begun to bear fruit. Food prices in Uganda were driven up sharply in 2011 by a combination of domestic and regional supply shocks and higher global food prices. The Yearbook analyses the recent food price shocks in Uganda and discusses policy measures to improve food security. Higher global food prices are likely to be a feature of the global economy over the long term, which will provide Uganda with an opportunity to exploit its comparative advantage in agriculture and boost agricultural exports. The Yearbook explores in detail various issues pertaining to investment in value chains in agriculture, including the role of market information and the need to encourage greater utilisation of high quality seeds, fertiliser and other modern inputs. The Yearbook also discusses some important innovations pertaining to agricultural finance, including micro-factoring in Kenya and new approaches to the challenge of training agricultural bankers. We recommend the Yearbook to everyone interested in agricultural finance and the modernization of agriculture in Uganda. Hon. Tress Bucyanayandi M.P.

  • Emerging Trends on Condominium Housing Sector of Uganda
    EMERGING TRENDS ON CONDOMINIUM HOUSING SECTOR OF UGANDA 1.0 Introduction. Housing is a fundamental human right which is essential to every individual, family and community’s wellbeing as envisaged in Article 25 of the United Nations Universal Declarations of Human rights.1 The 1995 Constitution grants land ownership rights solely to citizens of Uganda. Foreigners cannot own land freehold. They may, however, obtain leases for 49 or 99 years. Foreigners can either rent/lease from citizens or from the Government.2Condominiums (condos) are the fast emerging concept that Ugandans are embracing despite the fact that the Condominium laws were passed enacted almost twenty years ago. Condos in Uganda are regulated by Condominium Property Act No. 4 of 2001 enacted on 23rd February 2001and Condominium Property Regulations the regulations enacted on 26th April 2002. Condominium refers to a system of separate ownership of individual units in a multiple unit building, the individual units of which are designated for separate ownership and the remainder of which is designated for common ownership solely by the owners of those units.3 The purpose of the act and regulations were to provide for the division of buildings into units and common property: to provide for individual ownership of those units by issuance of certificates of title in relation to the units as tenants in common; and to provide for the use and management of the units and common property and for the connected matters. Examples of condominiums include Bugolobi flats, Bukoto flats to mention but a few. Experts warn that Uganda has the fastest growing and young population in the world at a growth of 3.5 percent per annum, which might in the near future create a housing crisis in 1 The United Nations Universal declaration of Human Rights 2 Article 26(1) & (2) 237 of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda 3See section 1 of the Condominium Act of No.

    Housing Finance in Kampala, Uganda: To Borrow or Not to Borrow ANNIKA NILSSON Doctoral Thesis Stockholm, Sweden 2017 KTH Centre for Banking and Finance Dept. of Real Estate and Construction Management TRITA FOB-DT-2017:2 SE-100 44 Stockholm ISBN 978-91-85783-75-5 SWEDEN Akademisk avhandling som med tillstånd av Kungl Tekniska högskolan framlägges till offentlig granskning för avläggande av teknologie doktorsexamen i Fastigheter och byggande tisdagen den 28:e mars 2017 kl 13:00 i rum F3, Lindstedtsvägen 26, Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, Stockholm. © Annika Nilsson, februari 2017 Tryck: Universitetsservice US AB Abstract Housing is an important part of development processes and typically re- quires long-term finance. Without long-term financial instruments, it is difficult for households to smooth income over time by investing in housing. However, in developing countries the use of long-term loans is limited, particularly among the middle-class and lower income individuals. Most people in developing coun- tries build their houses incrementally over time without long-term loans. The limited use of long-term loans is generally seen as a symptom of market failures and policy distortions. This thesis empirically explores constraints to increase housing loans and factors that determinate the demand for different types of loans for investment in land and residential housing. The study is conducted in Kampala, the capital of Uganda. The thesis looks at supply and demand of loans. Most of the data on the supply side is collected through interviews and literature studies. The demand side is investigated through questionnaires to household where data is collected in four surveys targeting different household groups.
