Populations the world over are beginning to realise the need to participate in investments. Groups are moving from traditional aspects of savings to borrow, towards the need to save and grow their money through investing. Investment clubs are the vehicles being utilised for this purpose. In Uganda, investment clubs have been growing by leaps and bounds, but the growth is limited, as is the services available to the investment clubs to help in their growth. Very little is known of the geographical distribution, net worth, or services needed by the investment clubs. Consequently, the Competitiveness and Investment Climate Strategy (CICS) Secretariat, commissioned a survey of the investment clubs, seeking to understand their number, geographical distribution, investments, net worth, and any services being offered, as well as services needed by the clubs to unravel their strength. This study was a follow up of an earlier study which sought to understand perception of the public on the idea of investment clubs. The same is herein attached, and formed the basis for this study.
