CBO Capital Partners will next month showcase over $1.5 billion Nigerian projects to foreign and local investors with $5 billion investment financing capacity.
This is coming preparatory to the forthcoming election which experts foresee some quietness and uncertainty around long term projects.
To this end, CBO Capital Partners and CBO Investment Management have concluded plans to get the investors, banks, equity firms, among others, to brainstorm on ‘Pre Election Investment Strategies for Nigeria in 2014’, at an annual investor conference scheduled for November 29, 2013 in Lagos.
The forum is targeting 225 firms including high net worth individuals and corporate businesses.
Speaking at a press conference in Lagos, Bekuochi Nwawudu, director of CBO Capital, said, “Election is going to be quiet, businessmay suffer and investment in business may suffer. The question is how do you invest with that uncertainty in mind, expecting that kind of potential slow down? The question is on strategies. What equities do you buy? Do you focus more on debt instruments? What unlisted opportunities are out there?”
