The Central Bank of Nigeria CBN Governor, Mr. Yemi Cardoso, has emphasized that Nigeria does not need to persuade investors to invest if the nation maintains strong macroeconomic fundamentals. Speaking at the bank's 2025 Executive Seminar, Cardoso said stability and predictability are crucial to attracting capital.
"Stability is at the core of advancing Nigeria's policy framework through inflation targeting," he said. "A credible inflation targeting regime enhances predictability, anchors long-term investments, and encourages investors to come naturally. You don't need to beg anyone to invest."
