Shettima to Endorse Capital Market Master Plan 2.0

Vice President Senator Kashim Shettima is expected to endorse the Nigerian Capital Market Master Plan 2.0, a 10-year strategic framework aimed at developing Nigeria's capital market and mobilizing domestic savings. This initiative is part of the broader efforts by the Presidency and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s $1 trillion economic growth target.

The SEC plans to introduce a National Savings Scheme backed by tax incentives. The Capital Market Conversation, scheduled for October 19, 2026, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, will gather local and international investors, capital market operators, and policymakers to discuss the sector's growth and celebrate successes.

Dr Nurudeen Abubakar Zauro, Technical Adviser to the President on Economic and Financial Inclusion, emphasized the importance of a deeper capital market for mobilizing capital and enhancing financial inclusion. The conversation will focus on investment inclusion, savings mobilization, and developing products to attract more Nigerians into the market, aligning with Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
