Uganda economic update;no. 3 |
| description |
This is the third edition of the Uganda
Economic Update series. The first part of this update
provides a general overview on the state of Uganda's
economy. Then the second part offers an examination of an
economic topic of special interest and high relevance for
the country, looking at how to improve service delivery by
district governments. In 2013 Uganda managed to sustain
macroeconomic stability and contain a short-lived uptick in
inflation caused by fluctuations in regional food prices.
This demonstrates the ability of the country's
authorities to formulate and implement sound macroeconomic
policies, and lays the foundation for continued achievement
of economic growth rates in the range of 6-7 percent. The
implementation of the large public infrastructure projects
planned for the next several years should also contribute to
growth. However, it will be as important as ever to keep
budget deficits under control and to make sure that
increased focus on infrastructure does not slow down
progress in social outcomes. While healthy and educated
population is critical for achieving Vision 2040, findings
from the recent Service Delivery Indicators initiative
launched by the World Bank show that the quality of
Uganda's social services still lags behind the quality
of its macroeconomic policies. This update proposes a set of
reforms to improve value-for-money in service delivery, as
well as contain the costs of local public administration. |
