KAMPALA, July 26 (Reuters) – The Ugandan shilling was steady on Friday, but was expected to weaken on the back of increased demand for dollars from commercial banks, traders said.

At 0813 GMT, commercial banks quoted the shilling at 3,735/3,745, compared with Thursday’s closing rate of 3,732/3,742.
