The researcher was concerned with how listed Companies performance has had an impact on Capital Markets in Uganda. The literature was reviewed based on research objectives, several roles, listing procedures/process and the empirical issues/studies. Although this project report study used secondary data that was obtained through literature reviews, primary data was also collected using the questionnaire and interview guide. The research methodology was more qualitative in nature and a case study approach was adopted. A sample of 16 listed companies, 28 commercial banks, 26 insurance companies, 46 private businesses, and 75 business individuals were used on the basis of purposive sampling procedure from the above listed institutions. The study findings arrived at, predicts the listing requirements need to be simplified for companies to list. The findings also suggest that periodic review of the requirements and increased public awareness would lead to improved listings.
