In this episode, recorded on September 8, 2026, we sit down with Leah Wakarima (Operations Lead, Hisa) and Gertrude Njeri (Head of Research, Hisa) to examine the structural dynamics of the Nairobi Securities Exchange relative to global financial centers like Wall Street. We explore how Hisa is dismantling retail access barriers through fractional shares and dual-currency wallets, the factors powering the domestic-led 2026 NSE rally, the revival of the IPO market following listings by Kenya Pipeline and Family Bank, and how technology and research are working to close the coverage gap on local mid-cap counters.
