SEC reconsiders suspension of 3 market operators

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) within 3 weeks has lifted suspension placed on three market operators.  

The three firms are Cowry Asset Management Limited’s, Standard Alliance Capital & Asset Management Limited and Strand Capital Partners Limited

The apex market regulating body said in a statement that Cowry Asset Management Limited has satisfactorily fulfilled its underwriting commitment in accordance with the provisions of the Investment and Securities Act 2007 as well as the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

“The suspension earlier placed on the firm’s issuing house function has therefore been lifted effective today, 10th September, 2015,” the commission added.
In the case of Standard Alliance Capital & Assets Management, SEC statement noted that that has reinstated the registration of Standard Alliance Capital & Asset Management Ltd. as Issuing House and Fund Manager.

“Please take note and deal with the operator in line with the approval,” the statement stated.
On August this year, the commission had lifted the suspension it placed on Strand Capital Partners Limited and its sponsored individuals. 

The lifting of the suspension is sequel to satisfactory resolution of all complaints and issues with the Commission by the operator.
