Premier Rating Services Limited (PRS) is one of the few companies that are authorised by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and approved by the Lusaka Stock Exchange Limited (LuSE) as a Designated Financial Advisor to SMEs. This means that PRS is qualified to be appointed as DFA by SMEs that desire to list on the Alternative Market (i.e. Alt-M) at the LuSE for purposes of guiding such SMEs through all the procedures and processes necessary to get listed on LuSE’s Alt-M. Listing at Alt-M gives SMEs the opportunity to tap into the capital market and raise long-term capital to support the growth of the SME’s business. Do you want to raise cheaper long-term capital rather than the more expensive commercial bank loans? Why not contact us?
