1) UML was bought from shady characters who took their money and ran.
2) ProCredit has shareholders like DEG & IFC who are solid entities.
3) Equity must have learnt from Uganda & added claw-back provisions that mean Equity gets refunds for bad debts, etc
4) Pro-credit is a German not Greek bank

That said, Equity has to be careful in DRC.

There was once a time when cautions served as rally catalysts,nowadays they appear like normal news even transcentury once issued a cautionary statement.

Social, political and economic stability of some of African nationas are areas that Mr. Mwangi needs to carefully be checking before investing.

A population that has been in war for +10 years tend to have a "haki yetu" mentality which is not good for business. A general may just pop up and decide to nationalise all companies.

Mzungu can see untapped wealth in DRC all the way from Germany, but "Muafrika" see war.

@dunkang's sentiment needs to be taken seriously. You need to ask yourself why the mzungu is leaving now in the first place. Diversification is good at times. But diversification for the sake of it shows that we don't know what we are doing.

Unfortunately for many wazuans in these counters they have fallen in love with the stocks they own! They therefore lack objectivity in assessing the risks and opportunities inherent in the stocks.
