93 out of every 100 shillings in Uganda already move electronically. The question is no longer whether the country is going digital - it's how well our rules keep pace. Today, nearly all payments, by both volume and value, are made electronically, with mobile money accounting for about a quarter of transactions. This isn't a shift we're forecasting. It's a preference that Ugandans have already settled on. Read the full statement here: ow.ly/XZCh50Z9L5v,
