The Capital Markets Authority (CMA) has granted approval to South African firm NewGold Issuer (RF) Ltd to issue a gold backed exchange traded fund (ETF) at the Nairobi Securities Exchange.

This issuance is the first under the new class of products that the exchange has been planning to introduce as it looks to add to the traditional stocks and bonds options for investors.
