Dolla & Access to Capital for Micro & Small Business owners

The Jamaica Stock Exchange & You

It's The Jamaica Stock Exchange & You Podcast, and I am your host Heneka Watkis-Porter. If you are an investor, whether new or seasoned, then you know what was and still on your lips and everyone else's...it's all about DOLLA. The IPO was oversubscribed by 950%, raised a total of J$4.762 Billion and attracted 14,981 shareholders. With their latest branch now open in Portmore, we anticipate even greater things from them. Today we are in for a treat as Kadeen Mairs, Chief Executive Officer of Dolla Financial Services will take us through access to capital for Micro & Small Business Owners.

Some of what we looked at were:

• Target audience?
• Loan Requirements?
• Access to capital, how does Dolla solve this problem?
• What, if any, are the similarities between the Jamaican & Guyanese Markets?

And lots more.
