Comercio Partners to host investor’s conference in Nigeria

Comercio Partners, a leading asset management company in Nigeria, is set to host its first investor conference with the theme 'From Recession to Election'. The conference aims to provide a platform for enlightening and educating potential and existing investors about the current macroeconomic trends in the country. With the responsibility to educate the investing community, Comercio Partners is committed to showcasing their dedication to their investors through this conference. The theme of the conference, 'From Recession to Election', symbolizes the transition Nigeria is undergoing from emerging out of a recession to the forthcoming election period. It reflects the importance of understanding and navigating the economic and political terrains of the country during this time of change and potential growth. Doyin Salami, a renowned speaker in economic matters, will be one of the key contributors at the event. CEO of Comercio Partners Asset Management, Tosin Osunkoya, emphasized the significance of shedding light on the current uncertainties surrounding the upcoming elections. The conference aims to address the concerns of both local and foreign investors, providing them with insights into the political and economic landscapes of Nigeria. Dr. Doyin Salami will be pivotal in guiding participants through what to expect and the sustainability of the economic recovery post-recession. In addition to the discussions on macroeconomic trends and political transitions, Comercio Partners will also unveil a disruptive and innovative product aimed at enhancing financial inclusion in the fixed income space. The product, an application accessible on mobile and desktop devices, is designed to educate and empower underserved investors in understanding and investing in various asset classes outside of traditional savings and fixed deposits. Osunkoya detailed that the mobile application integrates educational modules provided by ICAP Training Institute to simplify complex financial concepts, particularly within the Nigerian fixed income market. The platform offers a seamless transition from learning to simulated investing, eventually leading to real investment opportunities. Moreover, the inclusion of custodians as partners ensures transparency and security for investors monitoring their portfolios. The innovative product will be available for free download, signaling Comercio Partners' commitment to bridging the gap between retail investors and the financial market. Osunkoya emphasized the importance of diversifying the investor base in Nigeria to mitigate risks associated with a concentrated market dominated by banks, pension funds, and insurance companies. By involving retail investors through the disruptive platform, Comercio Partners aims to create a more inclusive and resilient financial ecosystem. The investor conference by Comercio Partners is poised to set a new standard in the Nigerian financial landscape, combining insightful discussions on economic trends with the launch of a pioneering product focused on financial empowerment and education. As Nigeria navigates through the post-recession recovery and anticipates the upcoming elections, initiatives like these are crucial in fostering a robust and inclusive investment environment.
