"Collective Investment Schemes in Emerging Markets" is a comprehensive guide that addresses the regulation and protection of investors in collective investment forms in emerging markets, particularly in Uganda. The book analyzes the legal framework established by the Ugandan Capital Markets Authority following the enactment of the CIS Act in 2003. It highlights the risks faced by investors and provides a detailed theoretical foundation as well as a literature review. The findings of the study indicate that the existing laws offer adequate protection, but there are also challenges that undermine the effectiveness of the regulation. The concluding recommendations aim to address these challenges and enhance the efficiency of the legal provisions. This work is a valuable resource for policymakers, regulatory authorities, practitioners, investors, and scholars in the field of capital markets.
