Q&A: Increasing Uganda’s willingness and ability to save⏤ NSSF’s Ayota explains the building blocks of his game-changing UGX50 trillion; Vision 2035 If “cast in the deep end of the pool” was a person, then probably, that person would have been Patrick Ayota. He was re-appointed as the Deputy Managing Director of the Fund and subsequently its caretaker Managing Director in December 2022 at the start of what would be quite some long months when the Fund came under intense scrutiny by its stakeholders. By the time he was appointed the substantive Managing Director in August 2023, it had been a long and hard 8 months for Ayota. Regardless Ayota, who has been an integral part of the turnaround of the Fund over the last decade, held steady, emerging victorious. Members too won a handsome 10% interest rate, regardless of strong headwinds. Now that the storm is over, it is time to get down to business and deliver on the big UGX50 trillion Vision 2035. In this interview, with CEO East Africa Magazine’s Muhereza Kyamutetera, Ayota gives context to the FY2022/23 performance and the vital building blocks of Vision to 2035.
