Uganda: Data Quality Assessment for Public Sector Debt Statistics

In November–December 2025, an assessment was undertaken of the data quality of the public sector debt statistics (PSDS) of Uganda against the IMF’s Data Quality Assessment Framework (DQAF) for PSDS. The mission was undertaken as part of a project to strengthen the quality of public sector debt in select African countries, funded by the Government of Japan. The mission reviewed the PSDS compilation and dissemination practices against each element of the DQAF and presented a series of recommendations to improve the quality and transparency of the PSDS of Uganda.
