Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange

In 1996, the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange (DSE) was incorporated as a private company limited by guarantee (a non-profit making body) and became operational in 1998.

In 2015, the DSE was demutualized, i.e. it changed its registration status from being limited by guarantee to being limited by shares.

Moremi Marwa, CEO of DSE, explained that the bourse aims at maximizing the value of investment through the process of demutualization.

In May 2016, the DSE launched its own IPO of 15m ordinary shares at TZS500 per share.

After exercising the option, the total capital raised from the DSE IPO is TZS10.1b.

In July 2016, following the successful DSE IPO, the Tanzanian bourse listed itself at the secondary market under the ticker “DSE”.
