To examine the effect of forecasting on financial performance of Local governments in Uganda. 1v. to examine the relationship between budgeting and financial performance. It was also found that average performance of Rakai District Local government budget Performance was 80.81 % for the financial year 2014/15 while the average budget performance in 2015/16 was 85.3%. The major challenges facing Local Governments in full budget absorption were found to be both Internal (such as capacity and administrative issues) and external (including amount of funding, Time of release of funds, demand vs. supply, and infrastructural challenges).
