The number has grown from 26,936 in the space of three months,\u201d Mr Kasaija said.<\/p>\n<p>As of January 2022, there were six investment scheme managers licensed by Uganda Retirement Benefits Regulatory Authority.<\/p>\n<p>These include Britam Asset Managers, Genafrica Asset Managers, ICEA Asset Management, Sanlam Investments, UAP Financial Services and Xeno Investment Management.<\/p>\n<p>Together, the six have a collective holding, which is in the excess of Shs1 trillion.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Keith Kalyegira, the CMA chief executive officer, said that whereas there has been growth recorded, the number of Ugandans under the investment schemes was still low.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs earlier mentioned, [the number of] Ugandans is still small,\u201d he said, noting that when compared with countries such as Ghana and Kenya, there was a lot that still needs to be done to bring a sizeable portion of Ugandans into the investment schemes fold.<\/p>\n<p>However, Mr Kalyegira urged savers to be vigilant, noting that there is need to keep constant watch of how investment schemes invest their money.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
