UGAFODE Microfinance Limited , commonly known as UGAFODE , is a microfinance institution in Uganda . It is registered and licensed as microfinance deposit-accepting institution (MDI) by the Bank of Uganda , the central bank and national banking regulator.[3] [4] [5]
History [ edit ]
UGAFODE was founded in 1994 as the Uganda Agency for Development Limited, a non-governmental organization whose primary objective was to provide affordable financial services to its customers. In September 2010, in preparation to become an MDI, UGAFODE Microfinance Limited was incorporated as a limited company.[6]
In 2011, the institution accepted eight new shareholders, including Ezra Suruma , Uganda minister of finance from 2005 until 2009 and senior adviser for finance and planning to the President of Uganda .[7] National Bank of Commerce (Uganda) , a Tier I commercial bank , which was closed in 2012.[8]
An application was made to the Bank of Uganda for the issuance of an MDI banking license. In October 2011, a Tier III MDI licence was granted, and MDI operations began on 10 October 2011.
