Selected Governors from Central Banks drawn from the COMESA Region who make up the Bureau of the COMESA Committee of Governors of Central Banks met on Wednesday 19 November 2025 in Kampala, Uganda for their 45th meeting.

They deliberated on various matters and endorsed the financial statements and work plans of the COMESA Monetary Institute (CMI) and the COMESA Clearing House (CCH). The two institutions are key in the region’s collective goal of deeper monetary integration and eventual establishment of a COMESA Monetary Union.

Assistant Secretary General for Administration and Finance Dr. Dev Haman was part of the meeting and commended the Central Banks for remaining resilient as the region continues to navigate a complex global environment marked by rising geopolitical tensions, tightening global financial conditions and climate-related shocks.

He emphasized the need to embrace digitalization as an enabler of inclusion and competitiveness as the region builds interoperable financial and trade systems, a goal that lies at the heart of the ongoing work of our institutions.
