UPDATE 1 — Ugandan central bank calls emergency policy meeting for Wednesday

(Adds context, paragraph 2 onward) NAIROBI, Oct 13 (Reuters) — Uganda's central bank said it would hold an emergency Monetary Policy Committee meeting on Wednesday. Uganda's shilling has been falling sharply against the dollar since August. The shilling has recorded repeated all-time lows this month and is down more than 11% against the dollar so far this year. The central bank has not intervened directly in the market to slow the depreciation, saying it does not target a specific exchange rate but will use a range of tools to manage excess volatility.
