The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rang the bell for financial literacy on the Nigerian Exchange Group\u2019s digital closing gong platform on 22 November 2021 in commemoration of World Investor Week (WIW) 2021.<\/p>\n

In delivering the opening remarks, the Divisional Head, Listings Business, NGX, stated, \u201cNGX is pleased to join the apex regulator of the Nigerian capital market, the SEC and all securities exchanges in Nigeria to \u201cRing the Bell for Financial Literacy\u201d in honour of SEC\u2019s commemoration of the 2021 World Investor Week. Financial literacy and inclusion remain a top priority for us at NGX and we continue to make it a priority to contribute our quota towards the achievement of key targets of Nigeria\u2019s National Financial Inclusion Strategy through initiatives that encourage the wider investing public to develop investment habits. As the sustainable exchange championing Africa\u2019s growth, we are, therefore, pleased to support the SEC on this laudable initiative.<\/p>\n

On his part the Director-General, SEC, Mr. Lamido Yuguda represented by the Executive Commissioner, Operations, SEC, Mr. Dayo Obisan, thanked NGX and the entire capital market community for providing the platform and supporting the SEC in its efforts to build a safe and vibrant capital market. He further stated, \u201cThe theme of this year\u2019s World Investor Week is timely given the spate of fraudulent schemes being attempted in the market today. At SEC, we continue to collaborate with stakeholders to educate the public and raise the necessary awareness to ensure investors can indeed protect themselves.\u201d<\/p>
