Investment Clubs could pave way for big brands
This is the bold proclamation made by Mr. Charles Ocici the MD Enterprise Uganda in a private interview after addressing members of the dfcu Investment Clubs gathered at Serena Hotel on Saturday July 10th 2010 for the second Investment Club Forum. He stands firm in this belief that there is strength in numbers and with good governance and guidance, Investment Clubs have the potential to develop into big brands such as Zain.
“Investment clubs are platforms for Ugandans to create brand names and businesses that go beyond individuals, because individuals do not create lasting enterprises.” The superiority of forming an investment club is that every member of the club brings different and unique talents, different roles and skills to the table and this Ocici says is the way to create a solid team and according to him, a solid team, is a solid brand.
Well, Ocici has been in the entrepreneurship business for a long time and runs a successful company imparting such knowledge to budding business managers on a daily basis and therefore when he speaks you better listen.
Mr. Ocici was the key speaker at the dfcu organized event that seeks to help our customers achieve full potential. Holding these investment forums regularly is born from our desire to see our customers succeed because simply advancing financial facilities to our customers without guidance is not sufficient enough.

The breakfast meeting was really great! I learnt a lot – especially about ‘fairness’ in the club. At the start, a few people do all the foot work while others sit on the fence and watch.
We are now considering an incentive scheme so that the active are rewarded and there are no hard feelings…
Hello Investment club, am delighted that our bank is endeavoring beyond just giving out loans, to teaching them on how best to benefit from these loans. i happen to have this massive zeal to own a very successful empire, i ve already secured most of the basics in a younger man’s dreams, and now my focus is on investment. I with my other partners left our jobs and registered a company dealing in car maintenance, and apparently we are sub-renting and business is steadily gaining foothold, however i feel am far from the dream…i ve the necessary skill and expertise to go heights in this very field, but the work place kind of limits the type of clients i need, yet our available capital isn’t enough to set my dream rolling..! How can our bank assist me beyond just a loan?
