Nigeria is “West Africa’s unrivalled economic powerhouse”

9mobile The next stage

The largest economy and most populous country in Africa, Nigeria is an emerging-market giant. It is also in a good position to recover strongly from the covid-19 pandemic and continue to attract global investment, as ratings agen-cy Fitch noted in a September 2020 report. Fitch noted the government’s “fi rm commitment” to reform, low government debt-to-GDP ratio, low foreign currency indebtedness, and “ample liquidity in the non-banking fi nancial system”. The agency also expects the country to benefi t from rising hy-drocarbon export revenues in the coming years.

Federal Inland Revenue Service Digital service optimization

Often overlooked and sometimes underrated, government tax authorities have a tough lot in life. But in Nigeria at least, the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) is play-ing critical role in supporting economic growth by digitizing services, diversifying the federal tax base, and perhaps most importantly, incentivizing priority sectors to attract new foreign direct investment (FDI). The work isn’t always easy. However, with oil demand and macroeconomic growth set to rebound this year, FIRS’ ongoing eff orts to make tax payments quick, painless, and less expensive will help keep Nigeria’s economic recovery on track.

Unlocking Nigeria’s investment potential

Nigeria’s oil and gas industry is ready for a rebound in 2021. While the country has been forced to grapple with massive economic shocks brought on by the pandemic, its oil and gas sector is poised to recover this year as vaccination campaigns advance and life returns to normal. The upcoming Petroleum Industry Bill will incentivize investment in the sector, while a new marginal fields licensing round is in the works, leaving the Oil and Gas Free Zones Authority (OGFZA) on the cusp of a sustained period of renewed growth.
