Our scope of services for foreign investors includes all enabling professional services and contacts on bilateral trades between our clients and their counterparts in other countries. This brings us and our clients into the realm of international buying and selling involving shipping and air transportation of goods and services and the incidental foreign exchange transactions and translation.
A decade or so ago, foreign business in Nigeria was simple and fast as in most other countries. It only took form filing, bank certification and minimal bank guarantees to do good profitable business. Today, our country’s reputation is at the lowest ebb in the international business community. Nearly every indigenous Nigerian business is subject to cumbersome and sometimes annoying bureaucratic processes in the seeming stance that Nigerians are corrupt and their foreign partners are honest.
This lack of confidence brings with it extensive and complicated technical services spanning across all professions including accountants, importers and exporters, bankers, investment analysts and others to resolve numerous financial and non financial issues. Accordingly, our finance and investment group includes experts drawn from these professions.
The most important aspect of investment effort in Nigeria today is to transfer technology from overseas to Nigeria to produce much needed basic goods. Other ancillary services include the import and export of raw materials and consumable goods. Our Finance and Investment Group deals with these issues as a practical matter for our clients and future clients.
