History:
BMA Capital's genesis - BMA Capital was established in 1992 with the intent of becoming the first professionally managed brokerage house and corporate finance and advisory firm in Pakistan. Although Pakistan's financial markets were still in the process of being liberalized, these were still early days for our capital markets. Indeed, BMA was formed at a time when much of the financial community was shy of even walking into the Stock Exchange.
BMA was conceived and created by unconventional people who refused to accept the "status quo" and had a vision and commitment to be market leaders. The firm believes that the key to BMA's success and reputation has been driven by its philosophy of establishing long term relationships with clients and a focus on our core businesses. Through a strong belief in nurturing local talent, focusing on quality of service, and a customer-driven corporate culture, BMA has emerged as a leading firm in Pakistan's capital markets today and is poised for growth.
Existing Businesses - BMA currently has seven core areas of business which include, Capital Markets, Corporate Finance & Advisory, Asset Management, BMA Trade, Private Equity, Research and Commodities. The firm offers its services to a large and diversified group of clients including top financial institutions, local business groups, multinationals, high net worth clients and the Government of Pakistan. BMA has since inception ranked as one of the top three Pakistani brokers in equities, money markets and foreign exchange.
The firm has enjoyed a high degree of credibility with international fund managers investing in Pakistan from the outset as well. The firm's corporate financing activities include financial and privatization advisory work, capital raising and M&A's (mergers and acquisitions). In 1994, BMA reinforced its credentials through a technical collaboration agreement with Credit Suisse First Boston (CSFB), one of the world's top investment banks, to act as their domestic partner for all investment banking transactions in Pakistan.
Following this significant milestone, BMA had the distinction of being the lead domestic advisor in landmark transactions in Pakistan's capital markets, including the sale of 10% of Pakistan Telecom Vouchers raising a total of US$898 million for the Government of Pakistan and Government's strategic stake sale of Kot Addu Power Company for a total valuation of nearly US$1.6 billion. |
