Material changes
The Country Manual has been reviewed to ensure that the content of all the documents remains accurate and up to date. We can confirm that there have not been any relevant legal or regulatory changes in Uganda since the last update.
.
Non-material changes
The documents have been reformatted onto the latest templates. Further non-material changes have been made throughout the documents.
Implications for business relations with third parties
There have been no substantial changes to the answers when a Bank co-operates with third parties.
With respect to the provision of documentation to the EAM (such as documentation on the Bank’s banking and investment services, investment research and financial analysis or recommendation lists), our Country Manual now distinguishes between the provision to the EAM for remittance to the end client on one hand and the provision to the EAM for the EAM’s own professional purposes on the other hand. The answers have been amended accordingly.
Regulatory Summury
This document has now a more user-friendly layout and reflects the changes contained in the RT.
BT Short Comparison
BRP has created a comparison document allowing users to quickly identify the modifications made compared to the previous version of the PB Manual (BT Short Comparison). The BT Short Comparison can be found on BRP’s platform (mybrponline) in the Search tab by entering in the Document Field “CM PB BT SHORT COMP” and “UGANDA” in the Target Country Field.
The BT Short Comparison should be read as follows:
The first column contains a short description of the activity in question. The second column contains the answers of the previous version of the Country Manual (online until the day of the alert). The third column contains the new answers of the most recent version of the Country Manual. Only the modified answers are displayed (in color).
