The Vice President, Kashima Shettima has called for a restructuring of Nigeria’s capital market to enable youths to explore its opportunities.
According to a statement, the Vice President said this during a courtesy visit by the leadership of the Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers, led by its President and Chairman of the Governing Council, Oluropo Dada.
He lauded the institute for its contribution to the growth of Nigeria’s capital market.
He added that leaders in the Nigerian capital market should reorganise the system to enable more trade in the stock market.
He said, “The institute’s position in the economy is critical. It has been grossly underutilised over the years.
“Leaders in the Nigerian capital market should restructure the system to deploy strategies that would attract more youths to leverage opportunities in the sector. There is a need to think outside the box to get more people to participate in the stock market.”
On his part, Dada noted that the CIS would continue to support the market’s expansion and development and that its members would uphold the highest standards of professionalism.
