Overview

As part of its continued drive to enhance the positioning of Kenya as a premier investment destination, the Authority in 2016 rolled out a market certification program for industry professionals. In this regard, all employees of a market intermediary licensed under the provisions of Part IV of the Capital Markets Act who have direct dealings with clients and trading activities on behalf of clients are required to undertake the certification program. Upon certification, the target employees are required to accumulate annual Continuing Professional Development (CPD) aimed at enhancing capacity of the staff in line with international best practice. This section provides information related to the certification program, CPD policy, related information/circulars issued from time to time among other details.
