How to start investing on the JSE

Starting your investment journey does not have to be daunting.  We aim to provide you with quality information so that your investment decisions are carefully considered.

The role of the JSE

The JSE has a history of over 130 years, offering secure and efficient primary and secondary capital markets across a diverse range of securities.

We allow buyers and sellers to trade in five markets: Equity, Equity Derivatives, Commodity Derivatives, Currency Derivatives and Interest Rate Products.

In 1996, the JSE moved from the traditional open outcry floor-based trading to create a modern, fully electronic trading, clearing and settlement system.  With online trading access now widely available and stockbrokers a phone call away, investing on the JSE is quicker, easier and more accessible than ever before.

Let us help you reach the full potential of your earnings and achieve your financial goals.
