- Licensed Dealer — Securities and Exchange Commission (Cap 354)
Laurence Paul is a privately held, full service investment management, investment banking, principal investments and securities trading firm. We provide unbiased advisory and investment services to entities and individuals involved in investing in and developing Africa’s productive infrastructure.
We work daily with financial institutions, major corporations, domestic and international investors, regulators and governments — and we bring that working knowledge of the business and regulatory environment to every mandate.
From raising finance for a growing business to managing a family’s long‑term savings, our services are built around a single question: what is the most sensible way to reach this goal?
Debt and equity finance, trade finance, mergers and acquisitions, financial restructuring, valuations, due diligence and strategic planning.
Licensed by the Securities and Exchange Commission to invest assets on behalf of clients, either collectively or on an individual basis.
The Laurence Paul Unit Trust and other pooled vehicles, researched and administered by our own fund managers.
Dedicated portfolio management for institutions, high net worth individuals and their families, with regular agreed reporting.
The Unit Trust is an open‑ended collective investment vehicle established under a Trust Deed. Investors’ interests are represented by units whose value moves with the underlying investments.
Invested in fixed income and debt securities including bonds, treasury bills, certificates of deposit and bank deposits.
Invested primarily in shares and other equity instruments, aiming to beat the average return of the Zambian equity market without higher risk of loss.
A dynamic fund combining the benefits of both fixed income securities and equities by taking positions in both asset classes.
The same fixed income strategy as the Income Fund, structured for investors able to commit higher minimum deposits.
The Equity Fund strategy for institutional investors and high net worth clients with larger amounts to place.
A fund of funds holding selected fixed income and equity funds worldwide — an effective hedge against local uncertainty and share market volatility.
Zambia’s property market offers investors both capital preservation and regular income, and the country’s continuing deficit in commercial, industrial and residential infrastructure means the sector still has a lot of room to run.
We set up and operate special collective investment schemes to buy or build properties for development — finding investors, structuring the agreements and constitutive documents, and overseeing purchase, development and construction through to appointing property managers.
Whether you are an individual investor, a corporate treasury or a pension fund, we will help you find the structure that fits.
