| African Select was founded with the primary objective of providing the African
Diaspora a single platform on which they can participate in equity (stock)
and debt (bond) investment markets across the African continent. The company through
member brokers licensed on various stock exchanges across the continent allows clients
to open a single account from which they can trade stocks and bonds in and across
countries of their choice based on their investment goals and interests. African

of investment opportunities across Africa. In late 2004 STOCKTRENDS, LLC launched the
