The Central Depository & Settlement Corporation Limited (CDSC) is a limited liability company approved by the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) to operate as the central securities depository for the Kenyan capital markets. Established in 1999, its primary mission was to immobilize and dematerialize securities, transitioning from physical share certificates to electronic book-entry records. This transformation has significantly enhanced the efficiency, transparency, and security of trading, clearing, and settlement of equities and corporate bonds in Kenya.
