Exciting Investment Opportunities on the Uganda Securities Exchange

The Uganda Securities Exchange is a relatively small and young market compared to say the Nairobi Stock Exchange. Inspite its small size and young age, the USE has distinguished itself by being among the top 3 performing exchanges in the whole of Africa for last three years. The good regulation and management of the USE, the fact that Uganda has no capital restrictions and the excellent performance of most listed companies make the USE an ideal investment destination for Ugandans resident inside and outside the country as well as international investors looking for emerging market investment opportunities. As 2006 comes to a close there is a lot of excitement about planned activities on the USE including: * A planned share split by Uganda Clays likely to be announced at the end of October 2006 * The initial public offering of Stanbic Bank Uganda Ltd, due in November/December 2006.
