Need to see the prospectus first. But I'd prefer an index ETF (FTSE NSE15 or 25) than owning the shares of an exchange.

Will NSE continue to grow? Yes as well as from other securities they'll launch.
Will it grow at the 2013 pace? Not easy to repeat that growth.
Will NSE face another exchange rival(s) in future? Likely.

Since this KE exchange is still a toddler, I'd rate it a buy as it still has room for growth as EAC econ expands enabling more listings. NSE has a few firms listed (some which hardly trade for days/weeks) compared with JSE or egypt or nigeria exchanges; it's a toddler. Then look at the other EAC exchanges that have lesser listed firms and static trading...

The zillion dollar question.

I've re-read the article on Business Daily page 2. Yes, 4/= is the par value and not the offer price. Thanks for the correction.

Do not underestimate the greed of our brokers. Price will be too exaggerated, promising a very lofty future.
As with other IPOs..eg cfci,Britak..I'm sitting out..and chilling for when sense and reality sinks in.

I will read the prospectus BUT I doubt I will buy [except the minimum] during the IPO.

Why?

1) The profits are from INVESTORS [you and me] and to boost profits they will refuse to reduce commission rates! Look how much the NSE gets. It's too high vs other busy or developed [don't look backwards at developing/African markets] markets.

2) Greed. The idea is to maximize the revenue for NSE [& its brokers] and that means a high PER. There are probably better buys elsewhere. And the brokers know more than we do.

3) 2014 will not show the same growth as 2013 y-o-y. And without new products and listings the trading volumes will remain stagnant.
Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

AS a business I would not buy into it, since the NSE has so many low hanging fruits and they've been unable to pick. IF its priced sensibly, I'll gamble
