For over 40 years, Centenary Bank has been committed to empowering Uganda\u2019s agricultural and rural communities through accessible financial services that transform livelihoods and drive economic growth. Founded in 1985 by the Ugandan Catholic Church to serve the rural poor, it is today one of the country\u2019s largest banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In partnership with Proparco and the Crisis Emergency Response Technical Assistance Facility (CERTAF), backed by the European Union, the bank continues to strengthen its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) framework. The aim is to ensure that sustainable business practices remain at the heart of every financing decision it makes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This approach shapes the support the bank offers across its customer base. Farmers receive timely access to credit, while small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are enabled to grow, create jobs and build resilient businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By pairing accessible finance with a strong ESG framework, Centenary Bank advances financial inclusion while fostering environmentally sustainable and socially responsible development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
