Afrinvest
(West Africa) Limited is set to present the 2017 edition of its Annual Nigerian
Banking Sector Report at the London Stock Exchange (LSE) on Octo
ber 27, 2017.
The
presentation of the report is scheduled as the anchor event of the Nigeria
Banking & Investment Forum: Capital Markets Partnership hosted by the LSE
in collaboration with the Nigerian Stock Exchange and in partnership with
Afrinvest. Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, has been
confirmed as the Special Guest of Honour.

According to
Ike Chioke, Group Managing Director of Afrinvest, this year’s report titled
“Nigeria Reopens for Business” is timely and instructive, as it is being
launched at an important phase in the country’s economic resurgence, following
the recent exit from a four-quarter long recession.
In his
words: “We are proud to launch the 2017 Nigerian Banking Sector Report before a
host of international economic and financial market experts in London on the
back of the nation’s recovery from economic recession, and we are confident
that it would further enhance appreciation of Nigeria’s financial services
sector.”
“The report
presents an optimistic outlook on the economy due largely to the positive
performance of the banking sector. It offers critical insight on how recent
gains in market performance can be consolidated to boost investor confidence
and ensure sustained growth, and what possible threats can derail current
positive trends.”
Commenting
on the collaboration with the Nigerian Stock Exchange and Afrinvest, Ibukun
Adebayo, Co-Head, Emerging Markets, London Stock Exchange Group, said: “Our
desire is to innovate with Nigeria, and we are keen to explore opportunities
for London’s global investment community in Nigerian markets.”
“The Nigeria
Banking & Investment Forum: Capital Markets Partnership provides a unique
platform to highlight the competitive landscape that exists, and show critical
international investors, regulators and stakeholders where real value can be
found in frontier capital markets.”
Now in its
12th edition, the Afrinvest Annual Nigerian Banking Sector Report has come to
be recognized as the leading and most incisive report on Nigeria’s banking
industry, and a valuable reference for local and international investors in the
Nigerian economy.
