The Bahamas International Securities Exchange (BISX) is pleased to announce that Leno Corporate Services Limited (LENO) has become a BISX Broker-Dealer Member.

Leno Corporate Services Limited becomes the sixth BISX Broker-Dealer Member to provide brokerage services. Speaking on the addition of a new Broker-Dealer Member, Keith Davies, BISX’s Chief Executive Officer stated, “We are extremely pleased to welcome Leno Corporate Services Limited as our newest Member. It speaks highly to their desire to service the needs of their clients, that they made this decision. Any new initiative that provides investors new options when it comes to financial services and avenues for investment is welcomed by the Exchange.”

Mr. Davies commented further on the significance of this new Member, stating, “Leno’s membership came at the end of almost two years of discussion with their President, Mr. Sean K. Longley and involved due diligence by the Exchange and then approval by the BISX Membership Committee. We expect that as our market evolves and continues to expand, we will continue to see additional firms follow the innovative lead of Leno. They recognized that they needed to look for new ways that they can add value to their clients, as providing just investment advice is no longer enough, with clients wanting to know that firms are able to manage their portfolios and carry out buy and sell transactions on their behalf.”

Mr. Sean K. Longley, President of Leno, stated “after four years of service here in The Bahamas, becoming a BISX Broker Dealer is major milestone for LENO as it reflects our commitment to empowering the everyday investor. Equally important to LENO is the notion of improving the overall understanding and relationship between investments and individuals. We embrace this opportunity and recognize our responsibility as we become a greater part of the investment industry.”

Mr. Longley went on to say that “LENO is a Bahamian owned financial services company that offers a wide range of financial consulting, administrative and management services including Administration of Group Pension and Saving Plans, College Savings Plans, Individual Retirement Plan, Brokerage and Trading, Investment Management Services, Accounting and Payroll Services.”

BISX is committed to fostering the growth of The Bahamian Capital Markets. One of the means that the Exchange focuses on in carrying out this goal is increasing the number of investment alternatives as well as the investment avenues available to investors.

The Bahamas International Securities Exchange (BISX) is pleased to announce that The Winterbotham Trust Company Limited has applied for and been approved as a BISX Sponsor Member responsible for ensuring the smooth listing of mutual funds on the Exchange. As a result, The Winterbotham Trust Company Limited (Winterbotham) will be added to the roster of eligible Sponsor Members that are qualified to introduce mutual fund listings to BISX.

BISX Chief Executive Officer Keith Davies commenting on the admission of The Winterbotham Trust Company Limited as a BISX Sponsor Member stated, “We are pleased to have Winterbotham join BISX as a Sponsor Member. Winterbotham is one of BISX’s original shareholders, and so we regard this as the deepening of an already existing relationship. I would like to thank Minister Ryan Pinder for bringing Winterbotham’s CEO, Mr. Ivan Hopper and I together to discuss new business opportunities during the course of the 2014 International Business and Finance Summit hosted by the Bahamas Financial Services Board. His involvement enabled the meetings that lead to this new BISX Sponsor Membership, and we are encouraged that the Ministry of Financial Services and Investments has incorporated BISX into its overall strategic plans for the development and expansion of the Financial Services Industry.”

BISX Sponsor Membership allows professional organizations to introduce applicant investment funds to the Exchange with the purpose of these funds being listed on the Exchange under BISX’s Listing Rules for Mutual Funds. In order to become a BISX Sponsor Member, applicant organizations go through a due diligence process with the BISX Executive Staff after which a determination on Membership is made by the BISX Membership Committee.

Speaking about this new membership; Ivan Hopper Chief Executive Officer of Winterbotham said: “It is important for us to continue developing added value services for our fund clients. Listing is one of those important requirements that fund managers look for when setting up a fund and we will now be able to provide a solution in this regard. Our Company is the largest fund administrator by number of funds in The Bahamas, and we expect to be able to sponsor many funds to become listed on the exchange. This will increase our ability to attract funds to The Bahamas and further enhance our offering in our fund services division”

Mr. Davies added: “Memberships such as this are essential to the growth and development of our country’s ability to offer differentiated services in the financial services community. As a result we believe that this is an excellent addition to our Exchange and we look forward to engaging Winterbotham on new business development initiatives as well.”

BISX is committed to working with its members to continue to develop value added products and services for the investing public, and for financial services providers and their clients.

The Bahamas International Securities Exchange (BISX) spent the afternoon of Monday 17 February 2014 with the Grade 12 Economics and Commerce classes of the R. M. Bailey Senior High School. Speaking to the students was BISX Chief Executive Officer, Keith Davies, and BISX Acting Chief Operating Officer Holland Grant. This session with a small grouping allowed students interested in Economics and Commerce to ask questions directly to senior Exchange Officials.

BISX Chief Executive, Keith Davies commented on the visit: \”Firstly I would like to thank Ms. Moree, R.M. Bailey’s Commerce teacher for having contacted BISX to arrange the session, as a society we owe so much to all of the teachers that go the extra mile for our young people, and so it was our pleasure to assist them in their efforts.”

During the speaking session, the BISX executives spoke about the Exchange as well as stocks, bonds and other financial instruments, but also took time to speak about their educational and professional experience. During the session, Mr. Davies also took time to educate the students on the traits that employers look for in employees. He noted: “I enjoy talking about the stock exchange, but beyond that, this is one of those rare opportunities that high school students get to speak with senior executives informally about the working world. I think that I was able to impart some advice that will be invaluable to these students in the future.”

Speaking about the session BISX Acting Chief Operating Officer, Holland Grant noted: “this was a bit of a homecoming for both myself and Keith, I spent many afternoons on the campus of R.M. Bailey while in the Technical Cadet Corps Programme, and it was through this program that I received a scholarship to attend the College of The Bahamas. Keith spent many Saturdays, playing soccer on R.M. Bailey’s playing field, so there is also an emotional element to a talk like this. My hope is that some of the advice that we imparted assists these students in their future educational and professional pursuits.”

The Bahamas International Securities Exchange (BISX) is pleased to announce the return of its Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Keith Davies from a business development trip to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), specifically to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Over the course of the week spent in the United Arab Emirates, Mr. Davies was able to meet with the Chief Executives of the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, the Dubai Financial Market and Nasdaq Dubai as well as the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and other high level financial institutions.

Mr. Davies was part of a private delegation of individuals representing various business interests within The Bahamas, who visited the United Arab Emirates with the goal of exploring business opportunities and highlighting to the UAE the business development opportunities in The Bahamas. The trip was organized by Mr. Tony Joudi, Chief Executive of FTC Ltd., who had previously travelled to Dubai with a delegation from the Government of The Bahamas. Based upon his impressions from his initial trip, Mr. Joudi took it upon himself to organize a delegation of private Bahamian based professionals who were interested in strengthening the commercial relationships between The Bahamas and the UAE. The delegation; besides Mr. Davies and Mr. Joudi, included Mario Carey, President and Chief Executive of Mario Carey Realty; Werner Gruner, Director at Andbank; Andrew Rolle, Sapphire Venture Fund Administrator; George Hamalian, Real Estate and Diamond Trader; and Seamus Lagan, Entrepreneur. Collectively, the group represented the major sectors of the Bahamian economy, namely, capital markets, banking, fund administration, trust services, legal and real estate fields. The visit to the UAE was financed completely by the members of the delegation.

Speaking about organizing the trip, Mr. Joudi indicated that he took the initiative to form a business delegation based on a promise he gave to government and business officials he met in the UAE, along with the Minister of Foreign Affairs and five other Cabinet Ministers and a Senator. Mr. Joudi was pleased to participate in the initial trip in October of last year which was a fact finding mission organized by Minister Mitchell and supported by the Prime Minister. Mr. Joudi stated, “We needed to immediately capitalize on the initiative taken by the Government, which planted the seed for every Bahamian man and woman with the spirit of entrepreneurship to travel and make things happen for themselves. A whole new world full of opportunities awaits us and we should have the courage to explore.”

Mr. Davies in speaking about the trip noted: “Travelling to the UAE gave me a chance to meet with capital markets professionals who have been exposed to many of the same challenges that BISX has faced over its history. And since BISX was established in 1999 and the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, and the Dubai Financial Market were established in 2000, we are essentially the same age. Additionally our trading systems bear many similarities and this fact helped us to immediately establish a common historical bond.”

Speaking about the presentations, Mr. Davies stated, “During the visits to the various different institutions, my fellow delegates would present on their area of expertise, and I would present on the Bahamian Capital Markets and BISX. My presentations with the different exchanges were so well received that after the presentations, in each instance, I had the opportunity to talk with my counterparts about establishing deeper linkages between BISX and their respective exchanges. I am pleased that my new colleagues from Dubai and Abu Dhabi were keen to begin open dialogue about ways in which our exchanges could collaborate internationally and mutually benefit our respective jurisdictions through direct listing and trading. We agreed to continue working towards this goal and BISX has been invited to return to the UAE with the aim of exploring ways of deepening this new relationship.”

Mr. Davies was quite positive on the outlook for BISX both domestically and internationally for the future, stating, “I think that this is an excellent way to set the tone for the year 2014, this trip has given us additional insight into where our international focus can be expanded for 2014. As I have noted previously, one of the priorities of BISX in the near future is growing our mutual fund listing facility and this remains a key focus, however this visit has reminded us of the fact that there are other markets out there where BISX and Bahamian Financial Services providers are not well known but can still make headway and gain traction. The opportunity to speak to this jurisdiction was beneficial to the members of the group obviously, but I believe that it will in the long term be beneficial to our entire jurisdiction.”
