Uganda’s Deputy Governor: “Financial Openness Without Fair Trade Is Inequality”|

Prof. Augustus Nuwagaba, Deputy Governor of the Bank of Uganda, addressed the UK–Africa Investment Summit with a powerful message on the imbalance between financial and trade liberalisation. “Our capital markets are open—but our products face invisible walls.” He cited non-tariff barriers as structural gatekeepers that disadvantage African exporters despite high-quality products, such as Ugandan bananas. Prof. Nuwagaba urged the global community to harmonise trade rules and ensure that digitalisation supports fairness, not just efficiency. 1️⃣ “Our financial accounts are fully open. But our goods face invisible walls.” — Prof. Augustus Nuwagaba 2️⃣ “Trade liberalisation must match financial openness.” 3️⃣ “Digitalisation must not mask inequality—it must drive fairness.” 4️⃣ “Non-tariff barriers are structural gatekeepers, not technical hurdles.” 5️⃣ “If Africa opens its markets to capital, its goods must also be welcomed.” 6️⃣ “This is not a call for charity. It is a call for fair play.” 🌐 15th UK–Africa Business, Trade & Investment Summit 2025 📅 Date: 12th September 2025 📍 The Royal Horseguards Hotel & One Whitehall Place, London 🔗 Register here: https://ukafricasummit2025.eventbrite... 🌍 Website: https://www.ukafricabusinesssummit.uk 📘 Brochure: https://www.ukafricabusinesssummit.uk...
