Insightful conversation this morning on the NBS Breakfast Meeting!
Our CEO, @gomasadde , joined Dr. James Okello Onyoin- @Visionafrica_ai to unpack how AI is already reshaping Uganda’s banking and financial services sector—from enhancing risk assessment and improving customer experience to enabling smarter, data-driven decision making.
A key takeaway: while adoption is accelerating, it is happening without clear standards and a defined code of conduct—highlighting the urgent need to integrate AI into governance frameworks to ensure responsible and sustainable innovation.

“Tonight, we gather for a truly historic moment as we honour the exceptional individuals and institutions shaping Uganda’s financial landscape. The Annual Bankers’ Awards 2025 celebrates excellence, innovation, leadership, and the values that continue to elevate our sector.”

For this inaugural edition of the awards, we received 57 submissions across 14 diverse categories, reflecting the depth of talent and leadership within our sector.
To ensure fairness, transparency, and credibility, all submissions were rigorously assessed by an independent panel of eight judges. ~@gomasadde, C.E.O @ibfsUg#ABA2025#BeyondTheFinishLine
“These awards come at the perfect time when Uganda’s financial sector is evolving rapidly, embracing technology, redefining customer experience, and expanding access to economic opportunity. Recognising excellence is not merely symbolic; it is catalytic. It inspires progress, strengthens our institutions, and deepens our collective commitment to excellence.”~ @gomasadde, C.E.O @ibfsUg#ABA2025#BeyondTheFinishLine
. @gomasadde, CEO @ibfsUg noted that the idea for #ABA2025 stemmed from conversations held at the end of 2024 during the Annual Bankers' Sports Gala, where it was observed that recognizing excellence often stretched late into the evening and did not offer a celebration befitting the achievements.

This recognition isn't mine alone; it's for the collective effort of so many brilliant minds and dedicated women who continue to shape Africa’s financial landscape.
To the organizers, thank you for creating a platform that celebrates women who drive transformation with integrity
To my colleagues at the @ibfsUg and to every woman striving to lead with purpose, this recognition is a reminder that our work matters, and that Africa’s progress depends on us all choosing to learn, transform, and lead every day.

“What started in 2020 as a simple idea for a World Savings Awareness Week grew into something much bigger. We realized a week wasn’t enough even a month couldn’t cover it all. Financial literacy and sustainability deserve year-round attention, and that’s how the #BAFSAC annual campaign was born.”
