What the Conference Will Address

The conference programme is organised around three analytical sub core of the EA-Proshare Country Watch framework. Each sub-themes that form the theme will be addressed with new empirical evidence, scenario modelling, and forward projections drawn from EA’ Oxford Economics calibrated econometric model and Proshare’s capital markets intelligence infrastructure.

The first subtheme, Price Stability , will examine the exchange rate trajectory and the outlook for further devaluation or convergence; consumer price inflation and the sustainability of the deceleration from the 34.6 percent peak of November 2024 to the 15.1 percent reading of January 2026; real interest rates and the implications of the current Monetary Policy Rate environment for investment and credit growth; and the All Share Index trajectory as a measure of capital gains and investor confidence in the narrative.

The second subtheme, Market Liquidity price stability , will examine the composition and sustainability of the foreign reserve stock, now reported at over $50 billion gross and $34.8 billion net; money supply dynamics and the monetary transmission implications of the CBN’s tightening posture; bond market issuance and yield dynamics, including the spread between the CBN’s Open Market Operations rate and the DMO’s primary market stop rates; and equity issuance and market capitalisation trends, including the tripling of NGX equity market capitalisation from N40.9 trillion in 2023 to N126 trillion in early 2026.

The third subtheme, Output Growth , will examine nominal GDP performance in both naira and dollar terms, including the recovery of dollar GDP to $308 billion in 2025 and the distance remaining to the 2019 peak of $569 billion; real GDP growth rates by quarter and by sector; and the acceleration dynamics that will determine whether the 3.87 percent full-year 2025 growth rate represents a durable structural recovery or a cyclical upturn vulnerable to external shocks.
