Prominent figures in Nigeria's financial sector are set to converge in Lagos for the 36th Anniversary Annual Conference of the Finance Correspondents Association of Nigeria (FICAN) scheduled for September 19 and 20. This significant gathering will focus on critical topics such as bank recapitalisation, tax reform, and the fintech revolution.

The conference, themed "Building on the Gains of Recapitalisation, Tax Reform and Fintech Revolution," aims to bring together a diverse group of stakeholders, including policymakers, financial regulators, banking executives, fintech innovators, economists, and capital market operators. This collaboration is expected to foster discussions that will shape the future of Nigeria's financial landscape.

The event will take place at Orchid Hotels, Dreamworld, providing a platform for industry leaders to share insights and strategies that can enhance Nigeria’s economic growth. With the ongoing changes in the financial sector, the conference represents a timely opportunity to explore how these reforms can be effectively implemented to benefit the economy.

As Nigeria continues to navigate the complexities of financial reforms, the discussions at the FICAN conference are anticipated to play a pivotal role in addressing the challenges and opportunities within the banking and fintech sectors. Participants will likely examine the impact of recent regulatory changes and how they can leverage technology to improve financial services across the nation.

This year’s theme underscores the importance of collaboration among various stakeholders in the financial ecosystem, aiming to build on the progress made in recent years while addressing the pressing need for reform in taxation and capitalisation within the banking sector. The outcomes of this conference could significantly influence policy decisions and strategic initiatives in Nigeria’s financial industry moving forward.
