Headline inflation is expected to ease to 21%: Alpha Morgan Economic Review Key Highlights

With a clear-eyed view on current market trends and policy movements, Alpha Morgan shed light on Nigeria’s ongoing economic transition and prospects at its recently hosted 16th Edition of her Economic Review Webinar, delivering forward-looking insights into Nigeria’s economy.

A key takeaway from the webinar was Nigeria’s rebased GDP, now $250 billion, making it the second-largest economy in Sub-Saharan Africa, fourth in Africa, and 40th globally (down from 27th). Bismarck Rewane, the renowned economist posed a pressing question: Is Nigeria working its way down the ladder of success?

The outlook remains promising. With inflation projected to ease and market reforms gaining traction, investor confidence is steadily rising. There’s growing interest in equities and alternative assets, while key sectors like real estate, telecommunications, and oil & gas are drawing renewed attention.

The anticipated listing of Dangote Refinery is also expected to serve as a significant boost to market momentum, potentially driving capital growth and expanding opportunities across the board.

The Alpha Morgan Economic Review holds bimonthly and remains a reliable guide for investors and policymakers navigating Nigeria’s evolving economy. Watch the full webinar on YouTube
