Fiscal and monetary policies play a fundamental role
in a nation's development. One of the positive outcomes of these policy tools
on economic performance is to help the country achieve sustained growth whilst
reducing economic instability. On the flip side, skewed and contradictory
fiscal and monetary policies have the tendency to create shocks and
uncertainties in the business community with consequential effects on business
survivability, investment promotion, and national development at large.
The current challenges in Nigeria—scarcity of FOREX,
continued depreciation of the Naira, as well as multiplicity and spike of taxes
and levies, and other socio-economic issues—have driven many businesses to the
precipice. While many are shutting down operations, there are yet others whose
capacity utilization has reduced significantly due to the unavailability of
inputs.
With the view of proffering workable and practical
solutions to these challenges and in furtherance of the expectations of the
Maiden Employers' Summit, your NECA is inviting you to join the conversation at
the NECA CEOs' Economic Discussion themed "Fiscal and Monetary Policy
Challenges in Nigeria: Sustainability Options for Businesses."
Attendance is free but registration is required to
participate.
