The Honourable Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, hosted Samuel Sule, CEO of Renaissance Capital Africa Investors, for a strategic discussion on Nigeria’s economic outlook and evolving investor sentiment.
The high-level engagement underscored a notable shift in investor appetite—moving from Eurobonds to local currency instruments, and now increasingly toward equity investments. This trend reflects a growing confidence in Nigeria’s economic reforms and policy direction.
Minister Edun highlighted several positive macroeconomic indicators, including the stabilisation of the exchange rate, a steady decline in inflation, and improved fiscal discipline. He also outlined key government priorities such as infrastructure development, energy sector reforms, and performance-linked programmes being implemented in collaboration with the World Bank.
The meeting affirmed Nigeria’s commitment to fostering a private sector-led economy, anchored on transparency, investor confidence, and long-term capital mobilisation. It further reinforced the government’s vision to position Nigeria as a leading destination for international investment across the continent.
