Investments in the National Airline
The Government of Samoa has officially announced that registrations for investment in Samoa Airways can now be facilitated through the Unit Trust of Samoa (UTOS).
How the Investment Works
- UTOS is now accepting registrations from eligible investors interested in purchasing shares in Samoa Airways.
- To participate, investors are required to open a standard UTOS account. UTOS will maintain a dedicated register that records all investments made specifically for the Samoa Airways shareholding initiative.
- Once Samoa Airways is ready to issue its shares to UTOS, all registered funds will be transferred into a Samoa Airways–specific investment product, created solely for the purpose of holding shares in the national airline.
- The minimum investment amount for this initiative is SAT$500
Your Funds in the Meantime
- While awaiting the issuance of Samoa Airways shares, your funds will be invested in UTOS’ standard investment product. This allows your investment to remain active and earn returns during the interim period.
- Once the shares are made available, your investment will transition into the airline-specific product, and shares will be acquired through UTOS. Returns for this product will be derived purely from the performance and operations of Samoa Airways.
- Funds invested in the airline cannot be withdrawn during this period. Withdrawals will only be permitted once we advise otherwise, following the readiness of the investment product and acquisition of shares.
Eligibility
- This investment opportunity is open exclusively to Samoan nationals.
- This online registration platform is for individual and joint unitholders only. If you wish to register a group or company account, please email us at [email protected] for assistance.
