Introduction
|
Beharry Stockbrokers Limited was founded on 12th
March 1993 by our late Chairman Mr. Edward B. Beharry. The source of business
financing was limited to borrowing from local financial institutions, namely
Commercial Banks which engage in short term financing. Sensing the need for
longer term funds to stimulate growth, trading in shares, developing the bond
market, underwriting and development of non traditional instruments BSL became
the pre-cursor to these new activities. BSL is part of the Beharry Group of
Companies established since 1935 which comprises some of the most established
and progressive businesses in Guyana and the Region. It’s operations now include
Commercial and Merchant Banking, Food Manufacturing, Margarine, butters,
ice-creams and detergents, Insurance life, fire, motor, marine and general, and
Automotive interests. The Beharry Group is a family business started six decades
ago as a humble operation with just three employees. Today, staff population has
grown to over 1500 persons. Continuing in the family tradition, three
generations of Beharry’s now manage this conglomerate. Family pride may have a
lot to do with the continued success of the organization as the Beharry name is
literally always on the line, in every product and service offered to the
public.
BSL pioneered the call exchange in Guyana trading in over $3 billion (USD $15
million) in stocks since its inception. The services of BSL were utilized in the
acquisition of GBTI Guyana’s second largest commercial bank. The company has a
combined 60 years of experience in the International, regional and local
financial markets, and stands ready to share this experience with our clients.
In keeping with our commitment to service to our clients our website will be up
