To achieve that, the CBN governor said the bank is committed to harnessing the power of digital technologies to enhance financial inclusion, boost productivity, and create an enabling environment for innovation and entrepreneurship to thrive for job and wealth creation. “The Bank has also deployed robust digital technologies in driving most of its processes towards achieving optimal performance,” Cardoso said yesterday when he hosted the participants of the Senior Executive Course (SEC) 46, 2024, from the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), Kuru who were on a study visit to the CBN headquarters yesterday.

Nigeria’s digital landscape is evolving, presenting immense opportunities and complex challenges.
The study tour themed “Digital Economy, Youth Empowerment and Sustainable Job Creation in Nigeria: Issues, Challenges, and Opportunities,” was organised to provide insights into the Bank’s initiatives and strategies aimed at fostering a robust digital ecosystem.

Cardoso who was represented by his deputy governor, corporate services, Dr Bello Mohammed said the study of this nature is imperative in unveiling the huge potential of digitalization towards contributing to sustainable job creation and youth empowerment in Nigeria. He highlighted the intricate linkages between digital economy, youth empowerment, and sustainable job creation.

“This study tour presents a unique opportunity for us to engage in fruitful discourse and explore collaborative strategies to address the multifaceted benefits and challenges of digital economy, youth empowerment, and sustainable job creation in Nigeria,” he stated, adding: “We welcome your critical insights, thought-provoking questions, and valuable recommendations.
