The Cameroon Subcontracting and Partnership Stockexchange (BSTP) are centres of technical information, promotion and linking between the donors, the suppliers and the subcontractors, which aim at using the more optimal (the most complete, logical and efficient) productive capacity of the affiliated industries. Indeed, stock exchanges appear not only as meeting points and as instruments of regulation between the supply and demand of industrial subcontracting works, but also as instruments of assistance for both partners, and particularly for small and medium-sized subcontractors or suppliers.
