1. THE SEYCHELLES SECURITIES EXCHANGE

The Securities Act 2007 laid the legal foundation for the Seychelles Securities Exchange. In April 2011, Trop-X (Seychelles) Limited ("Trop-X") submitted a proposal to the Seychelles International Business Authority and the first securities exchange licence was issued to Trop-X on 15 June 2012.

With the launch in November 2012, the securities exchange is expected to provide the platform for public companies and entrepreneurs to access affordable and sustainable global capital pools and Trop-X has indicated it aims to be attractive to both regional and international investors and issuers as well as providing high-quality, low-cost access to finance.
