About
DAI:
DAI is an employee-owned
global development company. For 40 years, we have worked on the frontlines of international
development, tackling fundamental social and economic development problems
caused by inefficient markets, ineffective governments, and instability.
Currently, DAI is delivering results that matter in some 60 countries. DAI is
preparing for an anticipated programme that will contribute towards sustainable
improvements in the livelihoods of the rural poor through increased digital
financial inclusion. Digital financial inclusion encompasses all forms of
electronic payments, but given the landscape in Uganda, the focus is
particularly on using mobile phones as a mechanism for financial transactions
and services. Working with public and private stakeholders including BoU, MoF,
local telecoms, banks, and MFIs, the programme will coordinate, concentrate,
and amplify the efforts of organizations working in financial inclusion in
Uganda. The program will facilitate improvements in the digital financial
service ecosystem; supporting the development of payments platforms and
services that will lead to a wider range of financial services and delivery
mechanisms benefitting poor households and micro, small and medium enterprises
in Uganda.
