Abstract
The research on "critical evaluation of investment laws in Uganda." The research Uganda has taken major steps to improve its business environment: the macro-economic environment has become more stable, and progress is being made in reforming economic regulations.

In a bid to change investment situation in Uganda, the research suggested recommendations as policy intervention and change in ways of practice at national and international level. Some of the recommendations include; modernization of economic regulations, improvement of infrastructure, revision of the existing laws legislation's on investment, trade liberalization among others.
