I have noticed records of active direct share purchases in foreign companies in Other countries including South Africa. Kenya however only talks of forex trading.

How have you guys been buying Chinese, Portuguese, American securities?

I notice recently those trying to buy into US companies especially from Malaysia seem to be frozen out especially when registering. Has that happened in Ghana too?

As far as I know, you HAVE to have a social security number or an ITIN ( Individual Tax Identification Number) before you can invest in the US market. Chunga conmen. Americans wont let you to just invest in their market, without taxing you!

I meant the brokers dont want you trading us securities at all.
You make a good point about taxes and conmen
