Speaking at the event, the Chief Executive Officer, NGX, Mr. Temi Popool stated, \u201cWe are excited to welcome GTCO Plc and to congratulate the Board and Management on a successful restructuring. Given the recent completion of demutualisation of The Exchange and the emergence of our new structure, we see many similarities between our organisations, particularly our outlook on the use of technology to advance business operations; the burgeoning opportunities in the retail market; and the importance of good governance in the corporate space.\u00a0 Today, we reiterate our commitment to being a trusted partner to GTCO and other listed companies and issuers as we continue to build a platform that allows our listed companies, investors and other stakeholders to maximise value in our market.\u201d<\/p>\n

On his part, the Group Chief Executive Officer, GTCO Plc, Mr. Segun Agbaje, noted that, \u201cOn behalf of the Board and Management of GTBank and the newly formed GTCO, I must thank NGX for its unwavering support in listing GTCO on The Exchange. At GTCO, we are very excited about the opportunities that have opened up to us with this restructuring, particularly because diversifying our income base has always been a major priority. As we venture into this new phase, we look forward to leveraging technology and introducing new business lines \u2013 including payments, asset management and more \u2013 that go beyond the needs of institutional or wholesale clients to improve retail clients\u2019 access to the financial markets.\u201d<\/p>\n
