The partnership between HFB and UNAA underscores the Bank’s commitment as an indigenous bank to supporting the Ugandan community – both at home and in the diaspora – and creating opportunities that enhance their financial well-being. Through this partnership, the Bank offers customers in the diaspora with advisory services on top of the wide range of financial solutions including home loans and mortgages, investment opportunities with fixed deposits & government securities, remittances plus the ability to bank anytime anywhere through the HFB digital channels among others.
While addressing the media at Housing Finance Bank head offices, Micheal K. Mugabi, Housing Finance Bank’s MD said, “We know that our brothers and sisters in the diaspora are looking for a reliable financial partner that can enable them to invest back home and benefit from their hard-earned money, and Housing Finance Bank is the bank you need to comfortably live abroad and invest back home.” We do not only offer banking services to our customers, but also go an extra mile and walk with our customers to enable them to achieve their financial aspirations.”
According to Michael Mugabi, the Managing Director at Housing Finance Bank, the partnership aligns with the Bank’s commitment to providing convenient and innovative solutions to its customers. “We are pleased to partner with UNAA to simplify the registration payment process for our customers.
