Step 1 - Register with a Broker
The fastest way is to sign up with broker (SGIs, for Sociétés de Gestion et d’Intermédiation) on the BRVM.
The broker will open up a trading account for you.
You will need a signed application form, valid passport, proof of residence (e.g utility bill) and proof of income (payslip) documents to open the account with the broker/SGI.
Once you are registered with a broker/SGI, you will be able to start buying shares via their app or online portal.
This a list of approved SGI/brokers
Step 2 - Choose the shares you want to buy
Preferably buy the shares of companies you understand.
If you don't invest in a company you understand, it is akin to gambling just with less excitement.
If you understand banking buy banks, if you understand farming buy agriculture shares e.t.c.
We can't tell you the best shares for you but we give you guidance on how to pick good shares
Step 3 - Send funds to invest
Decide how many shares you want to invest.
Please factor in at last 2-3% for commissions and trading account fees.
Once you know how much money you want to invest, send it to the broker/SGI.
Funds to invest can be sent to the brokers by bank transfer.
Step 4 - Undertake trade
Once you confirm that your funds have been added to your brokerage account, you can undertake a trade to buy the shares.
For most brokers/SGI, trades can be done by mobile app or online portal.
Trades can still be done by sending instructions by email or on the phone.
Step 5 - Confirm Trade
Brokers will provide a transaction notice once a trade is completed.
For our PREMIUM users, you can also track the trades you have made using our My Portfolio feature
