In his remarks, Anthony Kituuka, Managing Director of Equity Bank Uganda Limited, said, ‘’Equity Bank is committed to supporting the Top 100 SME Survey Campaign for the next 3 years. I encourage all participants to participate as it will give you visibility. Additionally, any SME that comes to Equity Bank to access any of the products will be given a 2% discount after being listed in the Top 100 SMEs.
He added, ‘’At Equity, we offer integrated financial services that empower consumers, individuals, MSMEs, communities, regional and global businesses. We don’t only focus on making money from businesses and communities, but believe if a community is well empowered, it will then seek our services’.
