Uganda is one of the fastest growing economies in Africa, averaging an annual rate of growth of 6.5 percent in the 1990s. Domestic investment and FDI into Uganda have increased rapidly. Much of this investment and growth has been driven by the imperative to erase an earlier decade of self-destruction, and the economy has only now begun to recover to the levels of production that existed prior to the turbulent 1970s and early 1980s. As the recovery runs its course, the sources of economic growth will need to shift from rehabilitation to expansion. Investors will need to enlarge their focus from catch-up investment, to the development of new products and markets.
