Step 1 - Register with a Broker

The fastest way is to sign up with broker on the GSE.

The broker will provide access to the GSE by opening a CSD (Central Securities Depository) account for you.

Step 2 - Choose the shares you want to buy 

Preferably by 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.
