As a trusted steward of our members' savings, we recognise that the decisions we make have a broader influence on Uganda's sustainable development, which why our sustainability journey is closely aligned with Uganda's national development priorities and the UN SDGs that are most relevant to our mandate.
By expanding financial inclusion, supporting decent work and economic growth, promoting gender equality, strengthening resilient infrastructure, creating economic opportunities and advancing responsible environmental stewardship, we contribute to Uganda’s sustainable development. Through the Hi-Innovator programme, 202,323 jobs were sustained as at the end of FY2025/26, supporting livelihoods and contributing to broader financial inclusion.

Serving beyond purpose with impact
These priorities do not exist in isolation. They reinforce one another. Financial inclusion creates opportunity. Opportunity strengthens families and communities. Strong communities build resilient economies. Resilient economies create the conditions for sustainable investment and shared prosperity.
Together, they help shape a future in which more Ugandans can participate confidently in the nation's economic progress.

Message from our Managing Director
Impactful resilience
We safeguard members’ retirement savings through disciplined governance, prudent risk management and responsible investment. Integrating environmental, social and governance considerations into our strategic decisions helps us manage emerging risks, identify long-term opportunities and build a resilient portfolio. By promoting wealth preservation, financial resilience and legacy planning, we aim to create sustainable value for members, families and communities across generations.
For us, responsible investment and strong financial performance are not competing objectives. They are complementary foundations of long-term success.
Partnership creates lasting impact
We collaborate with government, businesses, development partners, communities and citizens to advance Uganda’s sustainable development. These partnerships extend our reach, strengthen innovation, mobilise resources and support entrepreneurship, livelihoods and financial inclusion. By sharing knowledge and developing solutions together, we help build stronger institutions, resilient communities and lasting value across generations.
By working together, we create stronger institutions, stronger communities and a stronger Uganda.
Our people’s purposeful commitment
Our people are the driving force behind our purpose, translating strategy into innovation, making sound investment decisions and better experiences for members. Their professionalism, integrity and resilience enable us to deliver meaningful outcomes for millions of Ugandans. By investing in employee wellbeing, skills and leadership, we empower our employees to learn, innovate and grow, strengthening the Fund, improving service delivery and sustaining long-term value for our members and communities.
Looking ahead
I remain deeply optimistic about Uganda’s future, driven by the country’s youthful, entrepreneurial and resilient spirit and its potential to deliver inclusive, sustainable growth through agriculture, innovation, infrastructure, technology and regional integration.
As the Fund evolves alongside the country we serve, sustainability will guide our investments, innovation and risk management under Vision 2035, enabling us to extend financial security to millions more Ugandans.
Our ambition extends beyond growing the Fund: we seek to help build a stronger nation where prosperity is shared, institutions are resilient, natural resources are responsibly managed and future generations inherit greater opportunity.
Appreciation
As we commemorate forty years of serving Uganda, I extend my sincere appreciation to our members for their unwavering trust; to our Board of Directors for its guidance and oversight; to our regulators and Government for their stewardship; to our development partners and all stakeholders for their collaboration; and to every member of the NSSF team, whose professionalism, innovation, resilience and commitment continue to turn our shared sustainability ambitions into meaningful outcomes for millions of Ugandans.
Together, their contributions affirm that sustainable development is advanced through shared purpose, responsible stewardship and collective action.
As we look to the future, our commitment remains clear.
Protect today's savings, create tomorrow's opportunities, strengthen our communities and build enduring value for generations.
Because sustainability is ultimately about the choices we make today to create opportunities tomorrow. It is an expression of responsible stewardship, inclusive prosperity and our enduring belief in the extraordinary potential of the Ugandan people.
