Download or read book Securities and Capital Markets Regulation in South Africa written by C. King Chanetsa and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-08-26 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An effective capital markets industry has existed in South Africa for over 120 years. As recently as 2015, South Africa was considered the best regulator of securities in the world. The fall out from the GFC contained lessons for all markets, but not to the same extent. In the pursuit of G20 inspired conformity, aspects of the South African reform agenda may therefore appear replicative of initiatives in other jurisdictions and, consequently, uncritical in parts. In light of the fall to forty sixth place in the world in securities regulation ranking and some uncertainty in respect of the extent and shape of the reform process, C. King Chanetsa reviews activities in South Africa along the busy securities and capital markets value chain, and considers the continuing and emerging regulatory and supervisory framework.

Download or read book Fiduciary Law and Responsible Investing written by Benjamin J. Richardson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about fiduciary law’s influence on the financial economy’s environmental performance, focusing on how the law affects responsible investing and considering possible legal reforms to shift financial markets closer towards sustainability. Fiduciary law governs how trustees, fund managers or other custodians administer the investment portfolios owned by beneficiaries. Written for a diverse audience, not just legal scholars, the book examines in a multi-jurisdictional context an array of philosophical, institutional and economic issues that have shaped the movement for responsible investing and its legal framework. Fiduciary law has acquired greater influence in the financial economy in tandem with the extraordinary recent growth of institutional funds such as pension plans and insurance company portfolios. While the fiduciary prejudice against responsible investing has somewhat waned in recent years, owing mainly to reinterpretations of fiduciary and trust law, significant barriers remain. This book advances the notion of ‘nature’s trust’ to metaphorically signal how fiduciary responsibility should accommodate society’s dependence on long-term environmental well-being. Financial institutions, managing vast investment portfolios on behalf of millions of beneficiaries, should manage those investments with regard to the broader social interest in sustaining ecological health. Even for their own financial self-interest, investors over the long-term should benefit from maintaining nature’s capital. We should expect everyone to act in nature’s trust, from individual funds to market regulators. The ancient public trust doctrine could be refashioned for stimulating this change, and sovereign wealth funds should take the lead in pioneering best practices for environmentally responsible investing.

Download or read book Governance Structures in African Securities Exchanges written by Samuel O. Onyuma and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-10-09 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demutualization is the transformation of a securities exchange governance structure from a mutual association of stockbrokers operating as not-for profit entity into a for-profit company accountable to its shareholders. It has become a widespread phenomenon – one with increasing appeal in developed markets. It challenges the traditional approach to regulation of securities exchanges and raises issues regarding their role in capital markets regulation. In spite of its popularity as a strategy for catalysing securities exchange development in emerging economies, its pace in Africa has been excruciatingly very slow. African securities exchanges therefore remain underdeveloped compared to their peers in other emerging markets. So, how can African securities exchanges facing the challenge of integration and better technical and institutional development address the problem of underdevelopment through demutualization? This book explains how demutualization can enable greater and swifter securities market development in Africa; the role government regulators should play in demutualization of exchanges in African countries; the right self-regulatory model applicable to African exchanges; effective management of conflicts of interest and other barriers to separation of ownership from management and trading rights; types of investments needed to enhance the effectiveness of African’s capital market; and how securities exchange demutualization can facilitate African countries destiny to become leading capital markets globally.

Book excerpt: ‘How many millionaires do you know who have become wealthy by investing in savings accounts? I rest my case.’ – Robert G. Allen, investment advisor and author of Multiple Streams of Income In many people’s thinking, the financial markets are reserved only for the wealthy or people with financial or economic backgrounds. They discard the idea of becoming involved in trading because they perceive it to be too difficult.

Learning the skills of trading on the stock market can provide you with the opportunity to generate an income well into your retirement years.

How to Make Money on the Stock Exchange is written for ordinary people, in everyday language, to help them understand how the stock market works, and how to use this knowledge to acquire the necessary skills to generate a secondary (and potentially a primary) income by investing and/or trading on the markets. You don’t need to be a financial whizz-kid to make money on the stock market. All you have to do is be willing, and take the time, to learn about it. This book will show you how.
