Uganda has since then witnessed consistent economic growth that has led to similar growth of domestic savings.<\/p>\n<p>Mutebile will particularly be remembered for his firm belief in the free operation of financial markets with minimal government intervention.<\/p>\n<p>Such free markets are vital to ensuring that Uganda achieves sustainable growth that benefits all its people. Indeed, there is no Ugandan that has not benefited from the work of Mutebile.<\/p>\n<p>We will forever be proud of his leadership and selfless efforts to grow the economy of Uganda. Without doubt, he has touched the hearts and minds of many with his intellect and understanding of markets.<\/p>\n<p>At the National Social Security Fund, we will always remember your stewardship that has greatly influenced the growth of the Fund. We are forever grateful for the solid foundation built by Mutebile upon which the country will continue to grow towards the middle-income status.<\/p>\n<p>We condole with your family and our colleagues at the Bank of Uganda during this trying moment of grief and bereavement with empathy and sympathy. You will forever be missed.
