Lesana Lesotho officially debuted on the Maseru Securities Market on Wednesday, marking a significant milestone for the country’s push to deepen local investment and economic self-reliance.
At the listing ceremony held in Maseru, the Governor of the Central Bank of Lesotho, Dr. Maluke Letete, called for a stronger role for young entrepreneurs in shaping the nation’s future. He urged young Basotho to step forward and drive innovation, job creation, and sustainable growth from within.
The financial services company’s entry into the local stock exchange reflects broader national efforts to strengthen the economy through homegrown businesses and local participation. Lesana Lesotho has consistently supported youth-led enterprise, a vision that aligns closely with the government’s development agenda.
Dr. Letete also spoke on the need for Lesotho to craft its own development path—one less dependent on external aid. He pointed to Lesana’s achievement as proof that with the right support, local businesses can unlock long-term economic progress.
