Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX Group), through its regulatory subsidiary, Nigerian Exchange Regulation Limited (NGX RegCo), has reaffirmed its commitment to expanding financial inclusion and deepening retail investor participation following the successful FinTribe Finance Fair 2025, which convened over 9,000 women focused on wealth creation and capital market opportunities.
The event, organized by FinTribe, one of Nigeria’s fastest-growing women’s finance communities, has become a leading platform for promoting financial literacy and building investment confidence among women. NGX RegCo’s participation, through its flagship EquipHER initiative, featured interactive sessions that demystified capital market concepts and empowered women to make informed investment decisions.
“You have what it takes to step into greater capability and control over your financial agenda,” said Olufemi Shobanjo, Chief Executive Officer, NGX RegCo. “The same mindset that drives you to start a business, buy a home, or save for your child’s education, to plan, commit, and follow through, is exactly what makes women exceptional investors.”
Commending FinTribe for its sustained commitment to financial education, Shobanjo emphasized that the Nigerian capital market offers practical frameworks for translating financial discipline into purposeful wealth building strategies. “Financial inclusion begins with awareness,” he affirmed. “When women understand how the market works, they can own their financial futures and build sustainable wealth.”
In alignment with these educational efforts, NGX Group’s technology-driven innovations are lowering barriers to market entry. The Group’s digital investment platform, NGX Invest, enables investors to participate in public offers and rights issues directly from their smart devices, bridging awareness with active market participation.
