Speaking at the event, the Chief Executive Officer, NGX, Mr. Temi Popoola, CFA, noted that, “The innovation of financial derivatives in Nigeria and trading them through the organized Exchange will play a pivotal role in contributing to economic development by making risk manageable, enabling price discovery and reducing transaction costs for both financial and non-financial firms. Their continued contribution to economic growth will depend on the markets becoming more transparent and liquid, enabling end users to generate competitive returns while effectively hedging risk”.

He highlighted the importance of leveraging market data in this regard stating that, “Through cutting-edge technology, NGX continues to promote a high level of market transparency by enabling easy access to quality Real Time Market Data to all market participants including regulators. Market Data such as transaction prices, bids/offers and other trading information becomes the bedrock for price discovery and investment strategies. Derivatives traded on exchanges disseminate price information that aids both private and public entities because exchanges make contract volume and price publicly available. Such transparency helps markets function more efficiently.”
