The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have agreed to collaborate in combating crime in the Nigerian capital market.<\/span><\/p>\n

This agreement was reached when the Management of the SEC met with the Management team of the EFCC at the EFCC Corporate Headquarters in Abuja weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Ag. DG of the SEC, Ms. Mary Uduk who led the team, said the visit was necessary in order to close ranks in the face of re-awakening of Ponzi schemes, cybercrime and other fraudulent activities that have engulfed the market in the last few years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Uduk also stated that the visit was aimed at revisiting the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the SEC & EFCC on January 19, 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Uduk some areas where the MoU seeks Cooperation of both Agencies includes training, secondment of middle cadre officers of the SEC to the EFCC and those of the EFCC to the SEC, \u00a0cross boarder asset seizure, repatriation of stolen funds from the Capital market and prosecution of offenders amongst others.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have had reasons to work together on some cases in the past. There is no better time for the SEC and EFCC to collaborate more closely than now\u201d she added.<\/span><\/p>
