JSE : Jamaica Stock Exchange

What is the Jamaica Central Securities Depository (JCSD)?

The JCSD, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Jamaica Stock Exchange, is a facility for holding securities which enables share transactions to be processed by book entry. A book entry system is an accounting system which facilitates the change of ownership of securities electronically between parties, without the need for the movement of physical documents. In short, "the JCSD is a means of recording the ownership of shares."

Board of Directors

At present the members of the Board are:

Mr. Garth Kiddoe Chairman

Mr. Curtis Martin - Director
Mr. Alvaro Casserly - Director
Mr. Christopher Berry - Director

Mr. Livingstone Morrison - Director
Mr. Leo Williams - Director
Ms. Janet Wallace - Director
Mrs. Marlene Street Forrest - Director
Mr. Robin Levy - Secretary/General Manager

Why is the JCSD necessary?

As the transactions in shares increase, the ability to settle these transactions through the physical delivery of certificates becomes more cumbersome and error prone. The JCSD allows participating entities such as brokers and institutional investors to place their securities on deposit at the JCSD.

The JCSD registers the stock in its nominee name, in this case, the JCSD Ltd. The JCSD maintains the certificates physically in its vaults, records securities movements, and will debit or credit a participating firm's position through a book-entry computerized system. The JCSD will shorten the settlement cycle.
