Rwanda Market Summary
The Rwandan capital market has undergone significant change over the past decade following the launch of the National Bank of Rwanda (BNR) Central Securities Depository (CSD) and Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) payment system in 2011. The BNR is the sole CSD in Rwanda, providing settlement, registration and safekeeping services for equities, corporate bonds and government debt securities traded on the Rwanda Stock Exchange (RSE).
Regulatory oversight of the Rwandan capital market is conducted by the Capital Market Authority (CMA), which is a government agency responsible for the supervision of market participants. All securities held within the BNR are in dematerialised form with settlement being conducted via book-entry on a DVP basis.
