Investment Law
The very first operational Stock Exchange Market in the Central African Sub Region (The Douala Stock Exchange) was commissioned in Cameroon on April 23, 2003 almost three years after its creation. This was created in response to certain economic exigencies in the CEMAC Sub Region in a move to diversify financial sources and encourage savings at the national level. This institution is already attracting the attention of foreigners and we advise our clients to take advantage of this novelty. ETUDE MAITRE TAH advises prospective investors in this domain and act as brokers in some cases.
