Case Study (Preamble) Adusa Company has been in business for many years. The company is hoping to obtain financing for its upcoming project and wishes to hold on to this money for as long as the business exists, not as a loan though. In considering the options available and as first-timers on the financial markets, they were advised by Urata Investment Bank Ltd, who took charge of the processing for the attainment of the finance. With a consistent dividend payment and a good share price on the market, Adusa finds itself among the top-ranked on the local stock market. After 6 years of experiencing the organized market as a public company, Adusa Company is back on the market to raise additional financing to boost operations on the Olumba road construction, a contract they won due to links with the government and the fact that they could pre-finance projects, but this time, it is looking for an institutional investor (since there is none in their existing shareholder(s) profile) to subscribe to the equity capital they intend to raise. Kwame and Jojo are co-workers with Adusa company and have been saving part of their salaries in their bank accounts. It is becoming difficult to prevent themselves from spending these savings, so they are thinking of trading on financial markets. Jojo is risk-averse and not too comfortable with the price volatility of the stock market(s). Kwame loves risk and is looking forward to challenging himself for higher yield. The stock market is open with diverse options and these friends are game to trade.
