| 2 | The Ethiopian Securities Exchange (ESX) has admitted Prime Capital as a trading member, two months after it secured its license from the Ethiopian Capital Market Authority (ECMA). The exchange announced on July 2, 2026, at its headquarters on the 18th floor of the Nile Insurance building in Sengatera.
The move allows the investment bank to execute trades and act as an intermediary between investors and companies seeking capital, bringing the total number of ESX trading members to eight.
ESX CEO Tilahun E. Kassahun (PhD) applauded the progress in Ethiopia's capital market ecosystem while noting that the number of traders needs to expand in tandem with the number of available products. He added that there is still work to be done in meeting investor demand for services such as brokerage.
"It's important that output meets demand for the product," Tilahun said.
Prime Capital S.C. was launched two months ago as Ethiopia's sixth investment bank and second non-bank-affiliated investment bank. | 4 118 |

Two decades back, cooking oil in Addis Ababa was pressed from noug in small neighborhood enterprises and sold at shops loose by the bottle. Then refined oil became standard, cheap imported palm oil flooded in, and the local press faded.
Now small-scale oil production is returning, powered by pressing machines that start at a fraction of factory-scale cost and a growing trade on TikTok. But a mandatory requirement that loose oil cannot easily meet still hangs over the revival.
Shega examines who is pressing, who is buying, and what could shut it down again.

| 4 | Shega Policy Monitor June 2026.pdf | 1 172 |
| 5 | If May was about closing institutional gaps, June is about testing whether Ethiopia can afford the reforms it's writing.
Shega has just published the June edition of Policy Monitor, our monthly intelligence brief on the legislative and regulatory shifts shaping Ethiopia's operating environment. This month, one number frames everything else: Ethiopia's largest-ever federal budget, at 2.34 trillion birr, is also the second consecutive budget in which debt service outweighs combined capital spending on roads, health, agriculture, and higher education.
Balancing it depends on a 35.6% tax-revenue increase with no real precedent, and that single figure connects almost every other front moving this month.
The enforcement side of that bet is now visible in law. A new Electronic Invoicing Directive mandates real-time digital receipts across the formal economy, the most operationally demanding compliance measure since VAT, backed by INSA certification and six-figure performance bonds for service providers.
Three structural drafts are advancing in parallel, each addressing a gap this Monitor has flagged before: a rewritten Statistics Proclamation gives Ethiopia's data agency independence and a legal right to administrative data, nineteen years after its last census; a new Agricultural Business Company vehicle lets smallholders pool land and labor into something a lender can actually underwrite; and a Rational Medicines Use Directive writes WHO antimicrobial-resistance stewardship into binding law for the first time.
Two further instruments look outward.
A draft Federal Sharia Courts Proclamation modernizes Islamic family-law adjudication for the first time since 1992, introducing a binding cassation mechanism, though the substance of the law itself stays untouched. And a new Forest Carbon Trading Directive lays the legal groundwork for Ethiopia's carbon market ahead of hosting COP32 in Addis Ababa in 2027.
Read together, they describe a government trying to fund an ambitious reform agenda through enforcement, while the infrastructure to enforce, adjudicate, and measure any of it is still being built underneath it.
Policy Monitor is built to track that gap in real time: what changed, what it means in practice, and what to watch before it becomes next month's headline.

| 6 | Issue 245: Subsidy Gambits
At a glance, the numbers suggest stability.
But beneath them, Ethiopia’s economic model is being quietly stress-tested, from fertilizer supply chains to sovereign debt negotiations.
This week’s Shega Weekly looks beyond the surface to examine what current trends mean in practice, for investors and policymakers alike.
It also covers:
🌾 The limits of Ethiopia’s fertilizer model under global disruption
⚖️ Debt restructuring slows amid conflicting economic assessments
🏗 A reassessment of the country’s megaproject legacy
🎓 Academic integrity challenges in a high-stakes exam system
⚡️ New investments aimed at stabilizing power distribution

| 7 | What does it take for technology in education to actually work for everyone?
As digital tools continue to enter Ethiopian classrooms, the conversation is shifting. The challenge is no longer just access; it is alignment: aligning technology with curriculum, teacher capacity, and the diverse needs of learners, including students with disabilities.
The June 2026 edition of EdTech Mondays Ethiopia explores how to move beyond fragmented deployments toward a more coordinated, system-wide approach.
A key focus will be inclusivity. As digital learning expands, ensuring accessibility for all learners is not optional; it is foundational. This includes accessible design, localized content, and equipping teachers to support diverse classroom needs.

| 8 | Powering Ethiopia’s Next Chapter of Digital Growth
Ethiopia’s digital landscape is evolving at a remarkable pace. Across the country, technology is no longer used only for communication, but for work, creativity, learning, and business.
As this shift continues, access alone is no longer enough. The quality, speed, intelligence, and security of the tools people rely on are becoming just as important in shaping meaningful participation in the digital economy.

| 12 | Ethiopia’s EdTech Progress Confronts a Wall of Fragmentation
Post-pandemic, Ethiopia accelerated its push into digital education, but scaling impact remains a challenge.
From fragmented systems to limited financing, April’s EdTech Mondays discussions pointed to a clear takeaway: without a unified digital framework, inclusion risks remaining out of reach.
The next phase of EdTech will be defined not by access alone, but by how well systems connect and serve every learner.

| 14 | Shega Policy Monitor May 2026.pdf | 2 411 |
| 15 | If you invest, operate, or advise in Ethiopia, May 2026 was not incremental; it was structural.
Shega has just published the second edition of Policy Monitor, our monthly intelligence brief tracking the legislative and regulatory shifts shaping the country’s operating environment. This month spans eight distinct fronts, each pointing to a system under active redesign:
• Tax administration is set to enter a new phase: voluntary mediation, a 10-year fraud look-back, and conditional clearance that allows firms to operate while disputes are unresolved
• A first-ever critical infrastructure cybersecurity regime introduces 48-hour breach reporting, INSA-led oversight, and criminal liability for failures with real-world consequences
• Customs rules are set to tighten and evolve simultaneously, software valuation clarified, related-party scrutiny increased, and a 50% prepayment threshold imposed on appeals are being floated in a new draft.
• A draft Freedom of Information law proposes a statutory right to access public data, backed by Ombudsman oversight and proactive disclosure obligations
• Capital markets deepen as banks and pension funds are admitted directly into the OTC debt market, expanding the institutional investor base
• Aviation security is centralized under a single authority, reflecting Ethiopia’s role as a continental hub and the scale of its future airport infrastructure
• Alongside reforms in cooperatives and health regulation, the cumulative signal is unmistakable: governance architecture is being retooled in real time
What emerges is not a series of isolated reforms, but a coordinated, if uneven, attempt to close institutional gaps: compliance, transparency, enforcement capacity, and market depth.
Policy Monitor is built for this moment. Each edition distils what changed, why it matters in practice, and what to watch next.
Because in environments like this, the question is no longer what happened; it is how quickly you can interpret the direction of travel.

Ethiopia's insurance sector has spent more than a century failing to reach most of the population it nominally serves.
A wave of regulatory reform, including four concurrent NBE directives and a landmark draft proclamation aim to treat some of the sector’s most pressing constraints.
With tens of millions of Ethiopians already using some form of Digital Financial Service (DFS), significant gains in insurance penetration could be within reach.

Telegram's built-in Crypto Wallet has told its Ethiopian users that P2P trading in Birr (ETB) will be discontinued on June 2, 2026, citing regulatory requirements. All active P2P advertisements involving ETB will be removed on that date, and no new advertisements can be posted.
The suspension adds another name to a growing list. The world's leading cryptocurrency exchanges, including Binance, OKX, and Bybit, have all suspended P2P services for the Ethiopian Birr in recent months following regulatory pressure from Ethiopia’s central bank.
Notably, Crypto Wallet had added Amharic language support in mid-May, shortly after the major exchanges exited, in what appeared to be a bid to capture displaced Ethiopian users. That window has now closed in less than two weeks. | 2 557 |

In Ethiopia, where fewer than half of adults are banked, digital financial services hold the most direct path into the formal economy. But the tools only work when people understand them, and understanding has to happen in the language people actually live in.
As part of the AKOFADA (Advancing Knowledge on Financial Accessibility and DFS Adoption) Project, we are publishing the DFS-Focused Finance Glossary in Afaan Oromoo, the second edition in our localization series, following the Amharic glossary released earlier this year.
The glossary translates core digital finance terms and concepts, from everyday concepts like mobile money, bill payments, and wallets, to more technical ones like credit scoring, interoperability, and payment system operators, into clear, culturally grounded Afaan Oromoo. Each entry includes a translation, a plain-language description, and a real-world example to make the concept stick.
It's built for everyone the digital finance ecosystem is meant to serve: banking professionals, policymakers, DFS providers, and the Afaan-Oromoo-speaking communities across Oromia whose financial lives are increasingly shaped by these services, and who deserve to understand them.
