Challenges of African Universities for Funding The presures of expansion and massification. The economic problems facing most African
countries. A changed fiscal climate and policy direction induced
by multilateral agencies. The presure of other social and health issues (e.g.
HIV-AIDS, frequent natural disasters, etc.) on the State Budgets.
The inability of students to pay tuition rates. Misallocation of the available financial resources.

UEM Funds Allocation Model
State Funds, Central Research Programs and Loans All resources are received by the Center and then
allocated to Departments and Services, which have management power (Decentralized bureaucracy).
Strategic decisions are taken at the Rectorate level but routine decisions and implementation are made by Departments (Decentralized Bureaucracy).
Donations and self-regenerated income: Income is earned by the departments and is taxed to
cover the central administration expenses and the remainder is spent by departments (Managed Entrepreneurialism).
Income is earned by departments and retained by the them (Laissez-faire model).

Higher number of Bank accounts making very difficult the cash control.
Inability of better cash reserve management. Difficulties on financial reporting. Difficulty of financial planning, management
and control.

EMU Financial Strategy: Principles1. The University is one organization, not a collection of competing
business units (Faculties and Divisions).
2. The Budget is a strategic instrument to drive the University’s future direction and the changes necessary to ensure the University’s strategic objectives are met.
3. The budget model should be fair and equitable, as simple as possible, transparent and responsive to change.
4. There will be a Strategic Planning Fund which, at the discretion of the Vice-Chancellor will be applied to University strategic priorities.

EMU Financial Strategy: Principles (cont.)
5. Faculties may decide to allocate budgets on a different basis from the central allocation to their Departments based in their unique teaching, research and community service contributions to achieving the strategic priorities of the University.
6. The financing of major capital projects will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
7. There will be a reserve for contingencies of a minimum of 1% of budgeted income. The reserve may be used to buffer income fluctuations or to meet unforeseen expenditures.

EMU Financial Strategy: Institutional Strategies Integrate financial planning with institutional policies. Facilitate generation of income and cost recovery at
the basic unit level. Reduce costs and increase efficiency trough better
utilization of resources. Develop appropriate administrative structures. Develop and appropriate management information
system. Provide appropriate training for the staff.

EMU Financial Strategy: Diversification of Funds Sources Fees from continuing education programs organized
for industries and professions. Income from tailor-made program Profits from retailing through shops. Income from rents of conference facilities, sports
facilities and equipments for external use. Income from rents of residential facilities during
holidays. Research patents, licenses, royalties and overheads.

EMU Financial Strategy: Distance Learning role The distance learning as way to meet the
massive expansion of the University with relatively less funding.
The availability of ICT and easy access to training material as a way of reducing the cost of higher education.
The training material prepared by the staff could improve the teaching/learning strategy of regular program.

indicators Better utilization of resources Evaluation and auditing Protection of funds from fraud.
