Thanks Hisah
And here is a list of all the funds that Vanguard, US's biggest brokerage firm, invests in. Looks like they still dont invest in Africa but will double check.

Deal what happened, you were supposed to do a follow up on REIT's???
Seems like African ETF's are already being traded but they still insist that its very risky and should take up no more than 2% of your portofolio

Was not aware of this. Interesting. If I was to go for them I'd take the least invested in SA. Africa's growth potential is outside SA. Infact they should form a SSA ETF. High risk, high return smile

Unfortunately I dont like writing essays, but you can read essays from here

http://www.antiessays.com/free-essays/88831.html

http://jim.shamlin.com/s...ys/investments/etf.html

The second essay is more in depth.
Pliz let us know when REITs start trading at the NSE and through which companies, the share price etc etc, thanks.
By the way I'm just curious how you caught the CEO reading your blog?? Did you walk into his office??
