The Botswana Stock Exchange Limited (BSE) this week hosted the second mentorship session for the Tshipidi programme, bringing in finance and corporate governance advisers to take mentors through the factors they need to consider ahead of a listing.

Established in 2019, the Tshipidi Mentorship Programme aims to groom companies that could potentially raise capital, improve governance and leverage from increased publicity through the stock market in the short to medium term.

The BSE has this year identified 13 mentees out of a total of 65 applicants in various sectors such as hospitality, financial services, property, security and energy, who are being handheld through the process of preparing for a stock exchange listing.
