Keith Duncan, president and chief operating officer of Jamaica Money Market Brokers Limited, will lead the Jamaica Securities Dealers Association (JSDA) for another year, with plans to focus on domestic capital market development.

Central to those plans are continued efforts to implement, he said, a fixed income depository, develop a capital adequacy model, and to encourage more corporate issues of securities.

Duncan was re-elected to the position on July 27 at the association's annual general meeting.

He previously concentrated on working with regulators of the financial sector, and plans to maintain those linkages, but for the purpose of strengtheing the local capital market.

Other JSDA executive members include: vice-president Anya Schnoor, a senior vice president at Scotiabank Jamaica, with responsibility for wealth management and investment; treasurer Charles Ross, managing director of Sterling Asset Managemment, and secretary Lisa Gomes, president of Guardian Asset Management.
