Mutual Monday: What you must know about EPACK, the 'Praise-the-Lord' fund.

It's another Mutual Monday and welcome to journey to mastering mutual funds and unit trusts. With reference to my previous post, (Mutual Monday: Investment Funds (mutual funds & Unit trusts) in Ghana), let's take the funds one by one and know more about them. Let start with EPACK.
EPACK is a mutual fund, established and managed by Databank Financial Services since 1996. It is a long term (from 3yrs) investment fund that pools money in different amounts from different people for investment  primarily in Shares listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange.

Market Participants: List of Stock Brokerage Firms in Ghana

Most people have been asking me about who to contact if they want to start an investment. I have realized that most people in Ghana do not know who to contact or where to go in order to buy shares of companies listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange. I must admit that, some brokers in Ghana do not approach people to talk to them about investments or contact potential investors.
Moreover, people are very ignorant about the various investment instruments that exist in these brokerage firms. It is bad for the growth of the market.
So, I have decided to list the various broker/dealers in the Ghanaian financial market and their websites or locations. I believe this would help some potential or young investors to know where to go, or who to talk to.
