The latest workshop with the theme, “Harnessing Fintech for Capital Market Growth and Development” is scheduled to take place on Thursday November 17th, 2022 at Airport Hotel Ikeja, Lagos by 10.00 am.
In a statement, the President of FiBOP, Charles Onwuatogwu, said the choice of the topic is borne out of the need to further deepen and enhance the efficiency of the Nigerian capital market, boost earnings of investors and operators as well as draw attention to the challenges and benefits of deploying Fintech services in the Nigerian capital market.
“There is no doubt that the market is facing a lot of challenges at this critical time, hence the import of Fintech in addressing such problems as unclaimed dividends which today stands above N1.8 billion and similar other issues.
“Moreover, the need to attract more Fintechs to the capital market has become highly imperative in view of the increasing deployment of technology in virtually every facet of life as well as the need to further deepen the market by getting a larger number of our teeming youths to become interested in the capital market”, he said.
