Points clés à retenir
Globally, markets remain jittery, Rwanda's inclusive. But the local market, being relatively small and a newly developing one, faces challenges in attracting companies for fundraising. These challenges stem from insufficient knowledge about market operations, reluctance to change, fear of disclosure, and perceived costs and risks associated with going public. Additionally, developing the secondary market is equally challenging due to factors such as a limited number of domestic institutional investors, restricted participation of non-resident investors, a lack of offerings in the primary market, and insufficient benchmark bonds and investable assets in general.
