JP Morgan clears first hurdle for Nigerian merchant bank
Original: JP Morgan receives preliminary approval to establish merchant bank in Nigeria — Premium Times Nigeria
JP Morgan has received preliminary approval from Nigerian authorities to establish a merchant bank in the country. The approval marks an early but significant step for the US banking giant to expand its presence in Africa's most populous economy, where international banks have been watching closely as Nigeria works to stabilise its financial sector and attract foreign investment.
Why now: A major US bank's expansion into Nigeria signals growing foreign interest in the country's financial market.
