The Capital Market Solicitors Association has said its 2026 Annual Business Summit will focus on strengthening the structural foundations of Nigeria’s capital market, deepening investor confidence and promoting sustainable growth beyond temporary market rallies.

During a press briefing on Wednesday in Lagos, the chairman of the association, Simisola Eyisanmi, announced that the summit, scheduled for July 1, 2026, is themed “Structural Resilience and Market Permanence”.

Eyisanmi described CMSA as an independent self-regulatory association of solicitors and commercial law firms engaged in capital market practice in Nigeria, established to promote the interests of legal practitioners involved in capital market transactions.

According to her, this year’s summit seeks to examine how Nigeria can sustain capital market growth through institutional reforms, regulatory efficiency, technological innovation and stronger investor protection mechanisms.

“This year’s summit seeks to explore structural foundations and how to maintain structural resilience and market growth beyond temporary bullish cycles in the capital market. Establishing sustainable market resilience, therefore, requires shifting the focus from short-term speculative gains to deep, enduring structural reforms,” she said.
