Background:
As part of Rwanda’s ambitious long-term development plan to become a high-income country by 2050, we are transforming our financial sector through innovative initiatives. The Umurenge Savings and Credit Cooperatives (U-SACCOs), now consolidated into District SACCOs (D-SACCOs), play a pivotal role in creating inclusive financial systems across Rwanda. We are seeking an exceptional leader to drive this transformation forward.
The U-SACCOs were established as part of the National Savings Mobilization Strategy, with 416 cooperatives serving over 3.2 million members nationwide. Following successful automation under a shared Core Banking System, the next stage is consolidating these into 30 D-SACCOs. This strategic move aims to enhance operational efficiency and expand financial services across districts.
