The Parliament of Rwanda enacted Law No. 01/2011 to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for the capital market, defining key instruments, participants, and operational standards. The legislation mandates licensing or approval for capital market entities, grants the designated Authority broad supervisory and investigative powers, and establishes clear procedures for granting, suspending, or revoking permits. It further codifies rules on insider dealing, market abuse, information disclosure, compensation schemes, and disciplinary penalties to ensure transparency, accountability, and investor protection.
