Esteemed Stakeholders,

2021 has been an unusual year, with the pandemic dominating our lives as we get to witness the virus mutate into different variants. Thanks to science, we now have vaccine that has cushioned the impact of the virus on the global economy. We witnessed the movement restrictions imposed in 2020 gradually relaxed during the year. 

Through the collective efforts of YOU, our esteemed stakeholders, we have adapted to the ‘new normal’ way of doing business which has enhanced our engagements in driving initiatives that will deepen the Nigerian Capital Market.

At the onset of the pandemic, we listened, learned, and captured all the feedback you provided on areas of improvement and mutual collaboration in our business relationships. I am happy to say that we have made some progress on those key deliverables but, we will not rest on our oars till we deliver 100% best-in-class service to your businesses and exceed expectations.

To this end, we have gone ahead to develop a 5-year strategy plan that underlies building a culture of shared success with our stakeholders, always demonstrating operational excellence, and developing client-centric solutions with a clear market benefit that works for all. Be rest assured that our renewed strategic focus is still on YOU in this new year as YOU are the core of our essence as a financial market infrastructure in the Nigerian Capital Market. 

Lastly, I appeal for your continued support and sincere collaboration as you have done in the last twenty-five years of our corporate existence as in the New Year, we will surely have an auspicious occasion to celebrate with you all. It will be a time to share the memorable moments we had experienced in our corporate journey and expose our roadmap on how we are set to serve you better in the next twenty-five years.

Stay safe and keep well.
