The Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers (CIS) has called for stronger collaboration between the public and private sectors to realize President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s target of building a $1 trillion economy.
In a communiqué signed by its President and Chairman of Council, Oluropo Dada, the Institute said the target is achievable but requires coordinated efforts to deepen capital formation across key industries.
The CIS emphasized that collaboration between the public and private sectors must be institutionalized, with urgent reforms to unlock domestic capital and attract sustainable foreign investment.
It also stressed the need for a national savings strategy to mobilize local funds for productive sectors such as manufacturing and technology. The communiqué further called for streamlined regulatory approvals to encourage innovation — including fintech integration — and to eliminate overlapping mandates that slow capital flows.
In addition, the CIS advised the Federal Government to ensure effective coordination among market stakeholders in order to strengthen fiscal, trade, and monetary policies, boost investor confidence, and attract long-term capital.
The Institute urged stakeholders to leverage ongoing capital market reforms to drive job creation and expand national wealth.
