NSE Stock Trading Commission Fees & Taxes

Buying and selling corporate shares on the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) requires working through a licensed investment broker. Every stock transaction attracts regulated fees and government levies.

Standard Cost Breakdown on Stock Orders:

  • Brokerage Commission: Capped at a maximum of 1.78% of the transaction value for deals under KES 100,000.
  • Regulatory Levies: Includes CDSC fees (0.08%), CMA levy (0.12%), and Investor Compensation Fund levy (0.01%).
  • Capital Gains Exemptions: Note that shares listed on the NSE are fully exempt from the standard 15% Capital Gains Tax (CGT), making them highly attractive for long-term equity growth.
