Kingston, Jamaica – NCB Capital Markets has notified its clients of a slight increase in trade and settlement fees for equity transactions, effective January 1, 2025.
The Jamaica Central Securities Depository (JCSD) has approved the adjustment, raising the fee from 0.03% to 0.04% of the trade value.
This modest increase, the first in five years, reflects the JCSD’s commitment to maintaining stable and competitive pricing despite rising operational costs.

- CESS Fees: 0.32%
- Total: 0.36%
NCB Capital Markets encourages clients to reach out with any questions or concerns regarding this change. They expressed gratitude for their clients’ continued support.

Trading with NCB Capital Markets can be done through its web portal or mobile apps available on iOS and Android.
