@Pkoli...I have not seen the ad in the paper(Im far off). Does this mean that CMA is advising against participating in this private placement at worst or having a do-it-at-your-own-risk attitude at best?

Check page 21 of the Daily Nation. I am not sure if it is same page for other regional dailies, i.e Western and Coast.

CMA is saying they have not snactioned it and so people buying the 'shares' are doing so ay their own risk

Why CMA raising their concern now?
The Sales has been on since around 20th Oct & was set to close on 31st Dec 2010.

I already bought the shares.
I don't require CMA Approval to gauge a sound investment move.

Somebody shed some light into whether CMA is acting out of mandate or just to seek relevance.Anyway I find it a tricky issue coz all the MFI's do like Muramati are doing now.Talk about Equity,Family and others they all started selling their shares in a kienyenji manner before they were even popular.Furthermore Muramati started selling their shares to a section of the public esp accountholders more than 5 yrs ago and they have been doing it all along,giving generous dividends and bonuses...Anyway it's arisky investment and may be equally rewarding.CMA approval changes nothing you lose money even with their approval(uchumi e.g).CHAGUO NI LAKO

The regulatory risk here is too high. Ill opt out of this one. Hopefully I will not eat my words. Now Muramati needs to come out and make their numbers available to all to eliminate this regulatory risk. Its upto them now. If they do not handle this one well it says alot about the company and we are all probably better of not investing in the company. Shame on you

it falls squarely on CMA's role to regulate all fundraising activities, and thus must give approvals in such issues,

Much as Muramati could be the next Equity if not better, the average Kenyan needs to be protected from the Maddoff likes, and is such the reason why any issuer should submitt an information memorandum which deacons did.

Once an issue is advertised like this one was, it ceases to be a private placement

@ ilikeyou, according to cma, it has just come to their attention through a section of the media(both tv n print) and this makes me wonder which mrkt they are regulating and where their staff reside. its too late for them to start their blah blahs.

Remember the same warning when Real Insurance where doing their Private Placement. Also they won a FiRe award for the best managed Sacco. This is an individual decision but i am in it besides CMA=Wakora.
