SEC wants govt agencies to list on NGX
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) says it will encourage government agencies and state owned enterprises to list on the Nigerian Exchange Ltd. (NGX).
Dr Emomotimi Agama, the Director-General (D-G) of SEC in an interview with newsmen in Abuja on Thursday, said the listing of the companies on the NGX would guarantee democratisation of their operations.
Agama said the listing would also guarantee inclusiveness and wealth creation for citizens.
He said the Commission would provide incentives that would encourage as much state owned enterprises to list.
According to him, inclusivity is very critical, because in it, you have ownership and so we all build our industries and the country together.
The D-G said the SEC was also working towards inclusion via technology, adding that the use of technology would make the capital market more attractive, especially to the younger generation.
“That is why we encourage apps, we encourage fintech tools, and that is why we supported the inauguration of the electronic offering platform at the Nigerian exchange.
”We encourage everyone who wants to participate and is qualified to participate in this process, to turn around the way people see investing.
“We want investors to have a beautiful experience, to make it so easy for them that each time they feel like investing, it brings happiness to them.
”We will continue to do that through encouragement of technology, through education,” Agama said.
He said the Commission would ensure that bottlenecks usually experienced in process of investing in the market were removed to rejuvenate the country’s capital market.

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has raised concerns over factors that may hinder the growth of Nigeria’s external reserves in 2024/2025. The removal of fuel subsidies, rising import costs, and increased debt servicing are cited as potential threats to the reserves.
This was detailed in the CBN’s Monetary, Credit, Foreign Trade, and Exchange Policy Guidelines for the fiscal years 2024/2025. Despite these challenges, the CBN projects overall economic growth for Nigeria, driven by policies supporting agriculture, oil sector reforms, and foreign exchange market adjustments.
“The outlook for Nigeria’s external sector in 2024/2025 is optimistic,” the CBN noted, with expectations of favorable trade terms due to higher oil prices and improved domestic production. However, the bank also highlighted risks such as lower oil revenues, increased import bills, and rising external debt obligations.
