The Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) has tasked the government on mobilisation of finance in high-growth sectors, as a vital step towards achieving sustainable development in Nigeria.

The Group, whose 29th economic summit (NES 29) is scheduled for October 23 -24, 2023, has said it will be spotlighting the subject as a sub-theme. NESG said sustainable development requires deepening national financial systems through facilitation and mediation of innovative sources such as private equity, development finance, digital financial inclusion and microfinance.

“Efforts should focus on domestic revenue mobilisation by expanding the tax net and improving collection efficiency, promoting broad-based investment, packaging, onboarding, and retention of both domestic and foreign direct investments in critical high-growth sectors,” said director of research at NESG, Dr. Olusegun Omisakin said.

He said Nigeria can leverage a compelling portfolio of competitive investment-grade projects and social investment programmes to access and deploy financial resources in support of sustainable development initiatives.

According to Dr. Omisakin, “Promoting innovative financing mechanisms, strengthening public and private financial institutions, and enhancing public-private partnerships are essential for mobilising the necessary funds. Hence, it is crucial to shift Nigeria from a predominantly government-led funding approach to a private sector-led investment-driven economy, while also improving transparency, efficiency, and accountability in public revenue and expenditure.”
