Guru, I've always been meaning to ask if you trade at the Uganda Securities Exchange. With oil discovery who knows what it will do for the Ugandan economy. Does Equity Uganda have a Custodial Department? And if so can I open an account and commence trading from Kenya? Any tips on good counters? GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

@youcant.... at the moment i do not trade on the USE for a number of reasons.. one being that it is still using share certificates (no automation) though this will soon change... second one being that more than half of the listed companies are companies cross listed from the NSE... the only ugandan companies listed are: Bank of Baroda Uganda Clays National Insurance New Vision Print BAT uganda DFCU Stanbic Bankthirdly there is not much choice especially when one is talking about benefiting from an oil boom but if one was forced to invest then the listed Ugandan Banks like stanbic or Uganda Clays MIGHT do the trick.. Since you are in Kenya you might as well use D&B to get registered on the USE because i'm not sure if Equity offers the service here... Mark 12:29 Deuteronomy 4:16

@youcantstopusnow
True the Ugandan market is gonna be vibrant with oil discovery and commencement of CDSC trading.
I recently attended the Stanbic Ug AGM.
I think key sectors likely to benefit from oil include Manufacturing, Infrastructure - roads, transport, Banking sectors.
In Ug star banks are Stanbic, Bank of Baroda and DCFU bank.
I c stanbic being at the level KCB was when it was trading in 50s. Potential upsurge is huge.
I would ask you to open an account with African Alliance Kenya Securities. They will facilitate your trades conveniently.
Happy investing pal

Bank of Baroda & DFCU released results & both were up almost 50% over 2008. This is when many Kenyan banks profits were either breakeven to 10% higher... I expect 2010 to be much better for Uganda banks. Not the oil but the growth in the economy. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

guru, could low PEG be the answer to your never ending question of "what investors see in NBK?" I also saw what you meant about Unga. That stock is RIDICULOUSLY cheap! GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

@HALKY Pole for the loss of your mum. The transfer of shares is never easy, before it was a bit easier.
First thing is note is if you are the beneficiary of the shares in her will. If not is if you are the administrator of her estate.
If the above holds, then you may need to contact your broker, who will then need to organise the whole process of share transfer etc. I bet it will be easier if you were dealing with same broker as your late mum.
We had a slightly different scenario with our late dad. Our late dad's appointed administrator asked the bank which had the holdongs (shares) to sell. The proceeds were then divided among the children.
So you may try to see which will be easier, sell or transfer. ask your broker

The 1H 2009-10 was marred by a strike thus the profits were affected but I think 2H will have been much better... The passenger numbers were up in 4Q 2009-10 Greedy when others are fearful.
