slykat or skylat? am laughing at this unintended double entendre or was it just a Freudian slip?!
We need a comittee of 3 people including a capital markets compliance lawyer,an accountant and a financial analyst to jointly draft a petition which we will will sign. I am asking SK to make a petition page here.
The petition will:
1. outline past malpractices,systemic failures,non-compliance and illegalities in addition to CMA's real and perceived inability to act in cases where it clearly has self interests. This will be reinforced with real examples from us.
2. Demand certain reforms including demutualization of the NSE,civil and criminal actions against rogue brokers in their personal capacities, publication of annual independent audits of brokers financial books to safeguard investors' money, direct access to CDS A/C statements by investors without the need to go through a broker,or even better direct electronic trading! Personally,I believe the Central Bank is best placed to deal with such myopic wheeler dealing - the treausury shud also have a role.
3. Course of action if reforms not implemented in 6 months: tabling our petition to the minister of finance and the relevant parliamentary committee and private prosecutions,bad press,boycotting certain brokers or the NSE,compiling evidence from members for submission to the KACC etc
Any other suggestions we may approve,
Any people with a great deal of experience and understanding of the capital markets generally (and the NSE specifically) and their regulatory frameworks please step forward to draft the petition! SK,please arrange a petition signing page where we can sign the petition!

@ Skylat,what you have said is a great way of seeing this clique of people controlling our market.
As I see it the best thing is if investors,especially the retail investors,could get together and make a representation to the head of the CMA,I feel this will afford us an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.
We get an assurance from the CMA that all is well,or not,and we can get all our concerns off our chests.
I believe this can and should be done in order to kill this issue once and for all.
What do you think guys,can we get a critical mass starting here and then to the larger investment population?
Thinking is free...............so THINK!!

We should boycot trading until we are assured our money is safe and there are regulations being followed not just on paper
Focus on return on equity,not on earning per share.

thats a brilliant idea. but some one else will term it as mass action or worse still economic boycott. i dont see this work out. these are the risks investors have to meet on their way to redemption.
dont think that such things dont happen in other markets,they do. only in a disguised manner.
have a safe investing
