Lagos, 3rd September 2014 – Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA), Uche Orji, will deliver the keynote address at the launch of the Afrinvest 2014 Nigerian Banking Sector Report on Tuesday, September 9.

Titled “Navigating Growth in a Challenging Environment”, the 2014 Report, according to Ike Chioke, Managing Director of Afrinvest, “x-rays the current conditions of the Nigerian banking landscape within the context of the domestic and global economy.”
