1 Executive Summary
1.1 Background to the Unit Trust of Tanzania The Unit Trust of Tanzania (UTT) was incorporated on 19th June, 2003. It is incorporated under the Trustees Incorporation Act (Cap. 318). The Settlor of the Trust is ‘the Minister responsible for finance, Government of United Republic of Tanzania’. The Trustees are five individuals appointed by the Minister; and the primary beneficiaries are ‘The Citizens of Tanzania’. The Trust was set up as a successor to the Privatization Trust (PT) which was established under the Privatization Trust Act of 1997 with a fixed tenure of existence that ended on 4th June, 2003.
1.2 Business Location The UTT presently operates from one location in Dar es Salaam situated at the 2nd Floor of the Sukari House at the junction of Sokoine Drive and Ohio Street. However, as already intimated, the UTT has entered into alliance with CRDB Bank PLC through whose branch network the UTT is able to reach investors up to the district level.
1.3 Products and Services The main business of UTT has been to launch and manage collective investment schemes (CIS). These schemes, which essentially are financial products, are established under the requirements of the Capital Market and Securities Authority Act 1994 (Amended) and in compliance to Capital Markets and Securities (Collective Investment Schemes) Regulations, 1997. Over the years the UTT has established, launched and managed the following collective investment schemes:
1.3.1 Umoja Unit Trust Scheme (Umoja Fund) This scheme offered a discount of 30% by the Settlor on the initial sale of the units which carried a nominal value of TZS 100/‐ It generated overall subscriptions of over TZS 90.5 billion and a number of subscribers of 102,738 of which 102,144 were individuals and 594 institutions.
1.3.2 Wekeza Maisha /Invest Life Unit Trust Scheme(Wekeza Maisha Fund) A unit linked insurance plan (ULIP), this scheme is a long term product, of a ten year maturity horizon, offering an investor the benefits of accident and life insurance cover with growth in investment. The scheme was launched on 16th May 2007.
1.3.3 Children’s Career Plan Unit Trust Scheme (Watoto Fund) This is an open‐ended balanced fund which seeks to generate long term capital appreciation through a judicious mix of investment in debt and listed equity instruments for the benefit of Tanzanian children under the age of 18. The scheme offers two investment options, the scholarship option and growth option.
1.3.4 Regular Income Unit Trust Scheme (Jikimu Fund) This is an open–end balanced fund which aims at distributing income, subject to distributable surplus, periodically and also seeking capital appreciation for the long term investor. This

scheme offers investment under two options, (a) Quarterly income plan; and (b) Annual income plan with option to re‐invest income.
1 Problem Statement Issues to be addressed in this strategic plan
1. From the beginning marketing department was not included in the structure of UTT; hence our products were not conveyed properly to customers. 2. Communication gap between UTT and Investors. 3. Lack of enough awareness programs of UTT products. 4. Lack of comprehensive financial analytical tools for optimum asset allocation. 5. Lack of enough seed capital.
2 Type of Organisation By using the Ansoff Model we can define UTT as the oragnisation which ia looking at both develop new market and improve the existing market. Over years it has developed alliances between UTT and CRDB,UTT with Tanzania Postal Corporation by which four office zones have been developed so as to cutter for a new market and improve customer service and to take care of unfulfilled customer needs.
UTT is working on market penetration by maintaining/increasing market share, secure dominant of the market, secure mature market and increase usage of existing customers.
3 Current position The UTT has been in operation for more than five years at the time of developing this plan. It is headed by a Board of Trustees comprising of five members, one of whom is also the Chairman. The Board of Trustees has also formed two committees, namely, the Audit Committee and the Investment Committee. The Board and its committees ordinarily meet four times during the year to transact normal business of the Trust. However it also meets extra‐ordinarily to deal with special issues that arise from time to time in between ordinary meetings.
Using BCG model, UTT is yet to develop its business to stars, it is in the stage of question marks and striving to improve it market share by investing more.
4 Situation Analysis
4.1 SWOC The following analysis has been carried out in order to arrive at the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the organization:
Strengths: Weaknesses:

0]
• A wholly owned Government Entity • Large investor base scattered across the
country • Governance framework is in place • Very Focused management and staff • UTT is a pioneer of the mutual fund
market • Located in the major centre of excellence
in Tanzania
• Dependence on third party agent network • Insufficient cash resources • The marketing and selling functions need to be beefed
up significantly to tap the market potential that is readily available and yet unexplored
• Over dependence of a few key staff • Lack of a range of office systems in place. • Limited capital to explore alternative income
generating activities • Semi‐automation in certain functional areas
Opportunities: Challenges
• Acceptance to new ideas and an innovative approach for performing all business activities to keep the organization always at the cutting edge
• Enjoys good working relationship with stakeholders
• Government focus on the development of infrastructure will improve overall business environment in the country
• More literate people • Economy endowed with diversified
resources paving a way for ‘Foreign Direct Investment [FDI]’
• Market Segment is poised for rapid growth
• integration of financial markets in the Region (EAC, SADC etc)
• Clear emphasis on Good Governance with quick actions of various cross cutting issues like Corruption, Crime, Diseases etc.
• Aid dependent economy • Low savings culture and lack of public awareness about
financial products • Limited investment opportunities as only handful of
companies are currently listed on Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange
• Competition from substitute products due to their penetration and diversified range of products
• Lack of mutual fund experience in the country • Other players may enter the target market • New technology may render the product obsolesce • Economic slowdown may reduce the demand • Threat of the new ideology will pose big challenge after
5 years when we have a new president and new government cabinet
4.2 PEST
• Social In this category of social environment, emphasis is on demography, consumer altitude. In the aspect of demography in our strategic plan we should be able to anticipate wide demographical changes in the sense of population growth which will in turn determine investment level in country. Consumer attitude, buying patterns and life style trends are subject to change positively to accommodate a global oriented class and educated class categorically high technological development in the country following the global trend at a present and the wide effect of globalization.
• Political In our strategic plan emphasis must be placed on the changing government leadership. During the next 5 years we expecting the same president, same government, and more likely same policies so less or no effect in on strategic plan, but more worry and consideration should be placed there after as we would be expecting new president, new government and probably new policies and different approach towards investor like UTT.

This is the action stage of strategic management. It is putting formulated strategies into action by implementing means and mobilising employees and managers to that end. UTT will do the following to make sure implementation is a success:
• Creation of market responsive organisation: Organisation must respond quickly and frequently to strategic moves if they are to sustain competitive advantage. • The role of systems in implementation stage: Make sure that management systems, which include any of the formally organised procedures, assist the UTT business to reach a competitive advantage stage: These include execute systems, monitoring systems and control systems. • Executive rewards systems (ERS) Executive compensation and strategy are mutually dependent and reinforcing. UTT will put in place a good reward system which will optimise value in agency problem, measure and recapture value and also integrating compensation signals. These has a make or break impact on plan effectiveness. • Leadership style: Only the CEO of UTT can ensure that energies and efforts throughout the organisation are orchestrated to attain the desired objectives. Weak leadership can wreak soundest strategy. The CEO is the chief strategist of the organisation. • Measurement of strategic performance: UTT will ensure that the do Selection of performance measures, Setting performance standards and design reports on the measuring of strategic performance. • UTT will also structure the organisation in a manner that will ensure the implementation of a strategy to match structure and strategy. Furthermore, in order for the implementation to be complete, it requires organisation to: • Establishing annual objectives, Device policies, Motivate employees, Allocate resources,
Creating an effective organisation structure, Marketing, Budgeting, IT, Compensation package, Organisation performance, Requires personal discipline, commitment and sacrifice

11.3 Monitoring and Control The Strategic Plan will be evaluated and reviewed every year. This is important because it involves comparing the actual performance and the set targets. In a dynamic environment, various changes are inevitable and may affect the operation of the Trust and its schemes. Through continuous review, the Trust will determine whether a gap exists between the target and the actual performance and appropriate corrective action is taken.
To ensure seamless implementation of ‘Strategic Actions’ and monitoring of the same, a ‘Quarterly Progress Report’ shall be prepared by each department
Annual Review of Strategic Plan:

During the annual review of ‘Strategic Plan’ the following will be considered:
• Preparation of ‘Annual Progress Report’ on the implementation of strategic actions/ activities as was planned for the year under review [previous year].
The other issues which will form the part of ‘Annual Review’ shall be the following:
• Challenges encountered/ Lessons learnt during the elapsed plan period; • Preparation of ‘Departmental Action Plans’ on the proposed implementation of strategic
actions/ activities as listed for the coming plan year [next approaching year]; • Critical review of the outlined ‘Corporate Goals’ and to carry out necessary
modifications/ corrections [if required due to changing market conditions/ other attributes];
• Determine way forward for the coming plan period. The above outlined process for undertaking ‘Quarterly/ Annual review of the Strategic Plan’ prepares a perfect platform for ensuring effective monitoring/ evaluation of strategic plan.
12 Evaluation This is the final stage of strategic management that require UTT to establish when a particular strategies do not function well. Means of obtaining information and all strategies are subject to future modification due to the changing external and internal forces. When such changes occur UTT will have to: Review the process; Adjust mission; Adjust objectives; Adjust Strategies; Take
Corrective Measures
13 Financial Plan The UTT has to balance a number of responsibilities emanating from its role as a Government agency responsible for public education and advocacy for the development of collective

investment industry and management of warehoused shares; and as a promoter, initiator and manager of collective investment schemes. In order for the UTT to discharge these tasks it will be required to remain financially sustainable in the coming fifteen years of this strategic plan.
13.1 Projected UTT Financials: Though the possibility of recovering launch costs from scheme or investors was deliberated and discussed in details, however keeping in view the Tanzanian market conditions, UTT has to go a long way before the launch costs can be passed on/recovered from the investors.
As a part of this deliberation, Kenyan experience was highlighted whereby the initial launch expenses are recovered from the income derived by the Fund Managers out of entry/exit load as well as management fees. It is normally possible for the Fund Managers to pass this load to the investors in markets where preferential allotment is done to Mutual Funds by the issuers.
The financial projections indicate that the UTT Accumulated Surplus will be eroded further as each year of the strategic plan period total income is insufficient to meet operating expenditure. The projected operating deficit trend is not financially healthy and requires measures to be taken both to increase income and reduce operating costs. See appendices
13.2 Keys Financial Assumptions
• Dividend income from 2% T‐Bill government share. • Management fee is 1.5% charged on net asset value of the schemes and service charge
on repurchase of units as applicable from scheme to scheme. • Interest on accumulated surplus funds. • Operating expenses constitute about 40%‐60% of UTT’s total operating expenses. • Economic factors: accumulated surplus assumed to grow at 6% over a strategic plan
period. • Consultancy to begin after 5th year. • Operating expenditure to increase at rate of 6% per annum. • TBL shares dividend 2%. • NBC shares dividend 5%. • TCC shares dividend 3%. • Dividends to grow at 6% rate annually.
14 Sensitivity Analysis A detailed ‘Sensitivity Analysis’ has been carried out to forecast financials under various possible scenarios during the plan period. The purpose of the said analysis is to critically evaluate the ‘Financial Projections’ as computed under various options and then to strategize the UTT actions accordingly. See attached appendices
Possible Scenarios

The ‘Sensitivity Analysis’ considered the following possible scenarios with corresponding underlying assumptions:
SN POSSIBLE SCENARIO UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS
Option ‐ I Status‐quo maintained When UTT operations will be run with the existing seed capital [i.e. 2 % of TBL] and no new schemes are intended to be launched during the plan period and no additional seed capital is provided by the Government.
Option ‐ II Launch of ‘Vision Tanzania Fund [VTF]’ by UTT with a predetermined possible fund size and Government providing seed capital
(a) Best Case: VTF Fund Size to be Tzs. 500 Billion; (b) Worst Case: VTF Fund Size to be Tzs. 150 Billion; (c) Balance Case: VTF Fund Size to be 300 Billion;
Option ‐ III Government providing additional Seed Capital
UTT had requested the Government to provide additional seed capital in the form of 4 % TBL shares, 3 % of TCC shares and 5 % of NBC shares [with total market value of about Tzs. 26.13 Billion]. ‘Sensitivity Analysis’ on the following possible scenarios have been done:
Best Case: When all the requested shares are provided by the Government;
Other Possible Scenarios: Either 4 % of TBL; OR 3 % of TCC; OR 5 % of NBC
Option – II: Launch of Vision Tanzania Fund [VTF]:
UTT is currently developing a new scheme of venture capital nature titled ‘Vision Tanzania Fund’. However before this fund is rolled out, a detailed feasibility study is intended to be held, which would pave the way for achieving successful launch of VTF. Presenting in the appendices are the 3 possible scenarios indicating the different levels of VTF fund size and the corresponding financial projections under each scenario:
However this presents a great challenge to UTT to ensure launch of VTF by achieving a good success rate, which is over and above the depicted ‘worst cum worst scenario’.
Option – III: Government Providing Additional Seed Capital [shares to be warehoused]
UTT had submitted a request to the Government for warehousing of additional shares to UTT.
From the projected financials, the following can be derived:
1. In the best case scenario [i.e. when all requested shares are warehoused], UTT would emerge as a financially strong organization throughout the plan period;

2. Even under alternate scenarios [when shares of one entity i.e. either 4% TBL or 5% NBC or 3% TCC are provided], UTT will be able to manage its affairs within the available financials and generate some operating surplus on year on year basis;
3. However under alternate scenarios, the order of preference for warehousing Government shares shall be 4% of TBL or 5% of NBC or 3% of TCC in that order.
The above analysis indicates that the need of the hour for UTT is to vigorously follow up with the Government and seek additional shares for warehousing so as to ensure UTT’s future financial sustainability. 15 CONCLUSION UTT has come a long way by preparing/ finalizing its 2nd midterm ‘Strategic Plan’ for the period from 2009/10 to 2013/14. The successful implementation of the said plan would require the unyielding commitment on the part of all UTT Staff members under the table guidance of ‘Board of Trustees’. It is now high time for everyone to stick to the outlined strategic actions such that the conceived ‘Corporate Goals’ are achieved with a high success rate leading to the out‐performance under each sphere of our activities. Further, it is our hope that steady implementation of the ‘Strategic Plan’ will bring many more achievements to the Unit Trust of Tanzania and thus UTT will emerge as a catalyst organization towards achieving sustainable economic development and poverty alleviation in the country. 16 REFERENCES • Roger L.
