Uganda NSSF Hosts Africa Pension Summit

Uganda’s National Social Security Fund will host the All-Africa Pensions Summit in Kampala from November 5 to 7, bringing together pension leaders to launch a Development Fund for Africa. The initiative aims to use the continent’s $700 billion in pension assets to reduce reliance on foreign aid and address Africa’s $1.3 trillion annual development gap. Officials urged greater use of domestic savings and partnerships to fund infrastructure, trade, and social development across the continent.
