The Bank of Uganda delegation was led by Dr Tumubweinee Twinemanzi, Executive Director, National Payment Systems.

The new agenda
The incoming leadership set out its priorities: bring more licensed providers into the association, strengthen advocacy, build institutional capacity, work more closely with regulators and step up the fight against fraud in digital payments.
