The Commissioner Macroeconomic Policy Dr.Albert Musisi is presenting the opportunities to accelerate growth and structural transformation of Uganda's economy.
He says there is need to increase both actual and potential real GDP growth more than the level achieved last year of 6%,adding that new sources of growth must be found & there must be improvements in productive capacity of the economy to achieve higher growth potential.
Other opportunities:
➡️Natural resources (oil & gas,gold,iron ore)
➡️Population growth & harnessing demographic dividend
➡️Enhanced regional integration ( EAC,COMESA,AfCTFA)
➡️Domestic savings to finance investments & reduce reliance on external debt.
➡️Closing gaps in the policy and regulatory environment.
