imageKAMPALA: The Ugandan shilling was unchanged on Thursday as weak consumer spending continued to dampen appetite for hard currency among importers.

At 1039 GMT commercial banks quoted the shilling at 3,355/3,365, unchanged from Wednesday's close.

"Consumer spending and general pace of the economy appears to be sluggish and it's impacting demand for dollars," said Faisal Bukenya, head of market making at Barclays Bank Uganda.
