Swaziland water energy storage project
In a landmark decision, Swaziland has greenlit a major energy storage initiative aimed at addressing grid instability and accelerating renewable energy adoption.
In 2010, the GKoE passed the Securities Act to strengthen the regulation of portfolio investments. The Act was primarily intended to facilitate and develop an orderly, fair, and efficient capital market in the country. Eswatini has a small stock exchange with only a handful of companies currently trading.
Incentives to invest in Eswatini include repatriation of profits, fully serviced industrial sites, purpose-built factory shells at competitive rates, and duty exemptions on raw materials for manufacture of goods to be exported outside the Southern African Customs Union (SACU).
The Swaziland Investment and Payment and Settlement System (SWIPSS) offers real-time transactions. SWIPSS, Eswatini's Real Time Gross Settlement System, is an advanced interbank electronic payment system that facilitates the efficient, safe, secure, and real-time transmission of high-value funds in the banking sector.
Eswatini traditionally does not have a unified policy on investment. Instead, individual ministries have their own investment facilitation policies, which include policies on Small and Medium Enterprises (SME), agriculture, energy, transportation, mining, education, and telecommunications.
