Chairman of Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX), Dr. Umaru Kwairanga, has called for deeper policy reforms, stronger institutions and improved corporate governance to enhance Nigeria’s long-term economic competitiveness.
Speaking at the 2026 PEARL Awards Corporate Summit in Lagos, Kwairanga said Nigeria’s economic transformation depends on the quality of its policy environment, institutional resilience and the ability of businesses to adapt to rapid global changes.
He noted that the summit’s theme, “Policy Reforms and Corporate Competitiveness: Navigating Towards a Sustainable Edge,” was particularly relevant amid shifting global capital flows, technological disruption and increasing competition.
