The Nairobi Stock Exchange features a modern technology infrastructure, cost and tax incentives for investors and listing companies, and a friendly environment for foreign investors. With a regional character since inception, the NSE is committed to facilitating the creation of a regional exchange to serve the East, Central and Great Lakes region of Africa.


Chris Mwebesa		   “The goal of the East African Community, relaunched in 1999, is to have a fully integrated capital market with one regional stock exchange by the end of 2009.”

 
Going forward, we expect more IPOs because the market has strong absorptive capacity and the infrastructure is well enhanced and adequate. Overall, with the upcoming IPOs of Safaricom and other companies, the demutualization and the cross-border listings, the future of the NSE looks bright.
