BSV Blockchain featured Reginald Tumusiime, the CEO and founder of CapitalSavvy, about Creating a new financial system in Uganda.

Reginald visioned CapitalSavvy as a technology-centric finance firm. Uganda has a massive unbanked population, and education for many, especially in technology, is still paving its way. So they are helping support small-medium enterprises (SMEs) to have access to credit, which is one of the significant challenges in the region.

He highlighted how Monetix, the Swiss-based FinTech company, helped CapitalSavvy to launch a Digital Lending Solution. It is a complete digitized experience from the application of loans, due diligence, and disbursement of the funds.

Mobile Money is a big thing in sub-Saharan and also in Uganda. Therefore, Monetix's platform has integrated with Mobile Money as well.

The banking network in the country is widely undistributed, resulting in most informal people needing help accessing banks. In addition, most people struggle to use technology, such as a simple smartphone. These factors drove people to use Mobile Money to access financial services.

"Monetix Ltd. exposed me a lot more to the technology of BSV." - Reginald Tumusiime.

Digital Lending Solution granted affordability to people. While banks usually ask for requirements such as documents that most small-medium enterprises cannot provide.

On the other hand, because of Europe's relatively low-interest rate environment, CapitalSavvy, with its partnership with Monetix, aims to bridge the money from Europe into Africa. Enable markup and position it where finance is affordable.

"We encourage more Impact Investors to participate, and I believe it will go a long way in solving the issue of pricing and affordability" - Reginald Tumusiime.

Aside from serving Ugandans with a Digital Lending Solution, CapitalSavvy also gives business advisory to the public sector and different government entities. Their advisory arm can offer solutions through feasibility studies and high-end technology to extend the advisory to the government.
