InvestData Consulting Limited says it has concluded plans to mobilise the Nigerian investing public on the potential of the nation’s capital market post-general elections.
The enlightenment workshop, according to the company, has “May 2015 & Beyond: Equity Investment Made Easy,” as focus.
The company made the disclosure in a statement by Ambrose Omordion, its chief operating officer in Lagos.
The statement said the workshop would enlighten investors on ways to play in the market in a post transition period.
It said the workshop would centre on post May 29 market performance for previous election years and some drivers of the nation’s economic growth in the new dispensation.
It also said the workshop would afford the investing public the opportunity to know the factors that would attract foreign investors to a particular industry or company.
The statement said that investors would also be able to identify the next growth stocks and how to exit from such companies and avoid any depression as experienced in recent past.
It said that the capital market would benefit from the recent political evolution in the country.
The statement said that investors should reposition their portfolio in line with the expectations from the reforms expected from the new government after May 29.
“It is imperative for investors to know which stocks to buy now and sectors to invest in and the stocks to sell and the reasons,’’ it said.
The statement said the market would be largely driven by the policy the incoming government and its agents or regulators in different sectors listed on the exchange.
Some of the expected speakers at the event scheduled for May 16, Garba Kurfi, Managing Director, APT Securities and Funds Ltd. and Abdul-Rasheed Oshoma Momoh, Head, Capital Market, Trw-Stockbrokers Limited.
Mike Uzor, managing director of Datatrust Consulting, is also among those listed to speak at the event.
