As part of a continuous expansion in the Middle East and Africa region, SRP has launched a database for Mauritius, which is the second in Africa and includes around 50 products. The products, which are wrapped as warrants, medium-term and registered notes have a combined sales volume of over US$1bn. To see all products, click on this link.
The market is operated by local distributors, which also provide investors with strategy indices and more complex underlying assets. "Working with underlyings such as smart beta indices gives us the comfort of independently calculated indices which are more cost-effective to access compared to other indices," said Vimal Ori, chief operating officer at MCB Capital Markets.
The launch of the new database follows the successful inauguration of the SRP Africa Structured Products & Alternatives Investments Conference, which took place at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Johannesburg between November 16-18, 2016. At an awards dinner on the evening of November 17, MCB Capital Markets was named Best Distributor, Mauritius, while LS Advisor won the prize for Best Performance, Mauritius.
As with our other databases, we will continue to add older products as we find them, while ensuring that current offerings remain as comprehensive as possible. Please email any product information to info@structuredretailproducts.com.
As usual, subscribers with the relevant regional or global subscriptions have full access immediately.
If you would like more information on this, or any of our services, please email us at info@structuredretailproducts.com or call +44 20 7779 8355.
