Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 47854, member: 636"] Barita Investments Limited made financial history when it brought seven different bond packages to the Jamaica Stock Exchange. The investment company collected a massive $7.94 billion from eager investors who wanted a piece of the action. The money came from both US dollars and Jamaican currency during a two-month selling period that ended in May. This giant cash grab became the biggest bond deal anyone has seen all year on the island. Financial experts called the move a major win for both the company and the local stock market. The stock exchange added these new bonds to its growing collection of investment options for traders. Exchange officials counted 16 different bond choices available after Barita joined the party. The listing pushed the total number of securities available for trading up to 161 different options. Each bond started trading at exactly one dollar when the market opened for business. Investment professionals said the successful launch proved that local companies can still attract serious money from investors. Barita has been playing the stock market game since 2010 when it first offered shares to the public. The company returned multiple times over the years to raise billions more for expansion projects. Company leaders thanked investors for trusting them with their hard-earned cash during uncertain economic times. They promised to use the new money wisely and deliver good returns for everyone who bought bonds. Stock exchange officials encouraged other businesses to follow Barita's example and tap into investor appetite for new opportunities. [/QUOTE]
