Problems we are Solving

NGO Sector Consulting

Following increasing realization of the challenges faced by the NGO sector in Uganda from fraud and corruption, an industry wide initiative, the Internal Risk Management Group (IRMG) was formed by mainly international NGO’s operating in Uganda.
The forum is funded by, among others, British Aid and the Swedish Development Agency SIDA and In January 2020, following a competitive tendering process, the IRMG retained MAT ABACUS Business School consultants to provide support to their member organisations as part of a process to deal with these problems.

In January 2021, a fast growing commercial bank with a unique strategic mandate retained the services of our consultants to provide Board Induction support for its recently appointed Directors.
Our consultants designed a solution across governance, technology, strategy, and risk considerations enabling broad and strategic Director preparation, conceptualized and delivered in a short timeframe.
