Corporate Bonds: A missing link for Uganda’s blossoming companies to raise cheap capital

theceomaBusiness & MarketsAugust 15, 2013January 15, 2014

This, perhaps, is directly linked to lack of issuance of debt by corporate companies on Uganda’s capital market, even after the existing investor appetite. When a company has to raise capital, it can borrow money from a commercial bank, sell shares by listing on the Uganda Securities Exchange (USE) or privately to a private equity firm and issuing of debt through a corporate bond. Just like Uganda’s government borrows from the public by issuing treasury bills and bonds, corporate companies can do the…

National Insurance Corporation narrowly survives the axe

theceomaBusiness & MarketsJuly 12, 2013March 12, 2014

By Mark Muhumuza Survival instincts; this is perhaps the best way of describing how National Insurance Corporation Limited (NIC) survived being suspended by the Uganda Securities Exchange (USE) for delaying the release of its 2012 financial statements. The insurer published its results two months after the deadline set by the USE for listed companies. NIC, Uganda’s only locally listed insurer, was once again on the spot for delayed publication of financial statements for 2012. NIC, in 2011 was suspended from trading on the Uganda Securities Exchange (USE) after it delayed to publish financial statements for 2010, leaving investors in suspense….
