Afrinvest (West Africa) Ltd. has marked its 30th anniversary with the release of its 20th Nigerian Banking Sector Report, setting out strategies to help Nigeria achieve its ambition of becoming a $1 trillion economy.
The report, themed “ACT-BOLD: Turbocharging Nigeria to a New Growth Frontier,” urges policymakers and investors to embrace bold reforms across seven critical sectors: agriculture, creative industries, tourism, finance, oil and gas, logistics, and manufacturing.
GMD Ike Chioke said the milestone reflects Afrinvest’s resilience and innovation in the financial services sector. “We look ahead with a challenge to stakeholders: act boldly, think differently, and work collaboratively to unlock Nigeria’s true potential,” he said.
Deputy GMD Victor Ndukauba described the journey from stockbroking to becoming an advisory partner of choice in investment banking and fintech. Meanwhile, Afrinvest Consulting MD Abiodun Keripe pointed to fragile global conditions and projected 3% global growth in 2025, stressing the urgency for Nigeria to reposition.
He added that beyond marking Afrinvest’s anniversary, the report serves as a call to action for bold reforms and long-term investments to secure sustainable growth.
