The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Bank of Uganda (BoU) decided to keep the Central Bank Rate (CBR) at 9.75 percent during its meeting on 14 May 2026. The Committee noted that while risks from the Middle East conflict could increase inflation, the current monetary policy is deemed appropriate for the existing macroeconomic conditions. Inflation has remained below the medium-term target of 5 percent over the past year, ending in April 2026.
