Afrinvest to launch 2016 Banking sector report

Afrinvest (West Africa) Limited, is set to unveil the 2016 edition of its annual Nigerian Banking sector report  on 21st September at the Shell Hall, Muson Centre, Onikan, Lagos.
Managing Director of Afrinvest, Ike Chioke, revealed that this year’s report, which is the 11th edition since its inception in 2006 entitled “Searching for Investor Confidence.”According to him, “The 2016 Banking Sector Report chronicles developments within the global and domestic economy in relation to monetary and fiscal policy responses to shocks while also contextualizing the impact of policy decisions on domestic macroeconomic variables.

“Afrinvest Research is of the view that although some appropriate steps have been taken in recent months, the market is yet to respond positively,  evidencing the lack of investor confidence without which neither the market nor the economy can be rebooted.”
As part of the launch, Afrinvest has lined up a panel of distinguished economists and bankers who will share expert views and opinions about what needs to be done in the face of these challenges in order for Nigeria to regain investor confidence and put its economy back on the path of growth and prosperity.
Among them are Prof. Kingsley Moghalu, former Deputy Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN); Doyin Salami, Senior Fellow – Lagos Business School and Member – Monetary Policy Committee of the CBN; Herbert Wigwe, Group MD/CEO, Access Bank Plc among others
