ASSET BACKED SECURITY
UGANDA: CAPITAL MARKETS (ASSET BACKED SECURITIES) REGULATIONS, 2012
"An asset backed security (ABS)
is a security whose income payments and hence value are derived from
and collateralized (or "backed") by a specified pool of underlying
assets."
"The
pool of assets which is typically a group of small and illiquid assets
which are unable to be sold individually. Pooling the assets into
financial instruments allows them to be sold to general investors, a
process called securitization, and allows the risk of investing in the
underlying assets to be diversified because each security will represent
a fraction of the total value of the diverse pool of underlying assets.
The pools of underlying assets can include common payments from credit
cards, auto loans, and mortgage loans, to esoteric cash flows from
aircraft leases, royalty payments, or movie revenues."
"Often
a separate institution, called a special purpose vehicle, is created to
handle the securitization of asset backed securities. The special
purpose vehicle, which creates and sells the securities, uses the
proceeds of the sales to pay back the bank that created, or originated,
the underlying assets. The special purpose vehicle is responsible for
"bundling" the underlying assets into a specified pool that will fit the
risk preferences and other needs of investors who might want to buy the
securities, for managing credit risk – often by transferring it to an
insurance company after paying a premium – and for distributing payments
from the securities. As long as the credit risk of the underlying asset
is transferred to another institution, the originating bank removes the
value of the underlying assets from its balance sheet and receives cash
in return as the asset backed securities are sold, a transaction which
can improve its credit rating and reduce the amount of capital that it
needs. In this case, a credit rating of the asset backed securities
would be based only on the assets and liabilities of the special purpose
vehicle, and this rating could be higher than if the originating bank
issued the securities because the risk of the asset backed securities
would no longer be associated with other risks that the originating bank
might bear. A higher credit rating could allow the special purpose
vehicle and, by extension, the originating institution to pay a lower
interest rate (and hence, charge a higher price) on the asset-backed
securities than if the originating institution borrowed funds or issued
bonds."

DOMESTIC REVENUE MOBILIZATION STRATEGY (DRMS) – UGANDA REVENUE AUTHORITY (URA)
The
core objective of the DRMS is to improve revenue collection and lift
Uganda's Tax-to-GDP Ratio to somewhere between 18-20% within five years
of its implementation.The strategy targets to change the way revenue is
raised by targeting the following:
1)
Lifting the capacities of the revenue administration entities to ensure
that revenue is raised in an economically efficient way that reduces
the compliance burden for individuals and businesses;
2)
Enhancing transparency and accountability in the tax solution, make it
harder for the few who would subvert our society to engage in dishonesty
and fraud;
3)
Enhancing taxpayer service delivery, deepening taxpayer education and
access to information to ensure that we are all on one path together.
The
above three areas drive the strategic direction of Uganda Revenue
Authority (URA). The DRMS further sets the pace for URA's Operations by
focusing on key areas to tackle weaknesses across the entire compliance
continuum which include the following: Accuracy of the Tax Register,
timely and accurate filing, timely processing of refunds, improvement of
the effectiveness of Non-Tax Revenues and above all Data Management and
Optimization.
TREASURE THE PEARL, RIDE SPECIAL MOBILITY: UGANDAN TRUST FUND MOOTS AN INTEGRATED MOBILITY PLATFORM FOR AFRICA AND BEYOND
■ Based on our Recognition of the Uganda Revenue Authority (URA)
aspirations as enshrined in the Domestic Revenue Mobilization Strategy
(DRMS), We diligently propose to deploy the DALIFAiSPECIAL INTEGRATED
MOBILITY PLATFORM to enable the Taxpayer transition from the Disruptions
foisted upon the Global Economy by the COVID-19 Pandemic.
■
The proposed platform shall facilitate Taxpayer Conservation of Cash;
Tax Wise financing of the required motor vehicles to conduct
Business/Private Operations; Concentration of the available limited
funds towards execution of Core Revenue/Income Generation Activities;
Steering clear from the Risk of Obsolescence arising from Outright
Private/Public Vehicle Ownership, And the attendant lack of In-Usage
and/or Post-Usage ACRISS / DISPOSAL (e.g, the PPDA statutory constraints) Flexibility.
Premised
on the above scenarios, Please find Shared the highlights of our
Proposed DALIFAiSPECIAL Mobility Ecosystem – Salient Execution Mechanics
that seek to champion the Pearl of Africa aspirations in the wake of
the "Visit Uganda, Invest in Uganda" ( Destination Uganda ) campaign
dubbed " EXPLORE UGANDA, THE PEARL OF AFRICA" that was launched on 21st
January 2022 at Kololo Ceremonial Grounds by His Excellency, the
President of the Republic of Uganda, Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni.
