The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) says it has implemented a series of initiatives aimed at reducing the time it takes for companies to list their shares on the Nigerian stock exchange.

A statement from the SEC said the reforms are part of a broader effort to improve the efficiency, attractiveness, and overall development of the Nigerian capital market.

According to SEC Director General, Dr EMOMOTIMI AGAMA, the commission has streamlined registration processes, introduced an electronic filing system, and enhanced regulatory frameworks to expedite the time to market.

Dr AGAMA expressed satisfaction with the progress made so far and assured that the SEC will continue to prioritize reducing time to market and unlocking the full potential of the Nigerian capital market.
