Expert at Flobal Trust Limited, a capital market operator licensed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, has seen the need for Nigerians to appropriately budget their finances in order to spend wisely, save regularly and invest prudently.
Giving the advice at the just concluded workshop held in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Omoefe Siakpere, CEO, Flobal Trust, noted the need to plan for the future, adding that “it entails an extensive process of the various elements of a financial plan that should be integrated into our overall lifestyle, which outlives our physical existence to include our Estate. This takes sensible planning and years of persistence.”
Flobal Trust Limited is a corporate advisor on investments and financial services (including money and capital market). They are also commission agents and offer consultancy, training, management and general organisational services on stock broking and general investment.
“If you begin your investing early in your working life, it will allow funds to accumulate and grow over the subsequent decades, so that you have substantial resources for navigating your retirement years and the administration of your estate after your lifetime,” said Siakpere, who is also the CEO of Klass and Korporate Consultant, an international consulting firm.
She said at the workshop organised in partnership with Rivers State government for civil servants that “early planning is critical because it typically takes many years to accumulate the necessary funds to live comfortably when you no longer enjoy the advantages of a salary.”
