Fashola to address bank directors on PPP
Having pioneered a lot of public private partnership (PPP) projects in Lagos State, Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola has been selected as the guest speaker at the Bank Directors Association of Nigeria (BDAN) 2013 stakeholders’ forum.
The annual stakeholders’ forum of the association brings together executive and non-executive directors of banks, officials of other financial institutions, regulatory authorities, professional bodies and executives of other leading companies in Nigeria.
A statement said the event tagged: “Public Private Partnership Innovations in Public Sector Financing,” would hold in Lagos next Tuesday.
BDAN is the umbrella body of bank directors. It was established to provide a forum for improving the knowledge and the competence of bank directors, thereby promoting honourable practice within the banking industry in Nigeria. The association also contributes to the development of the banking industry through recommendations and comments on policy and topical issues in the industry.
Among other things, this year’s forum is aimed at examining critical issues relating to public private partnership financing. This followed the success of the 2012 stakeholders’ forum which examined, “How Banks can leverage on Credit Bureau Services to accelerate Growth”.
The target audience for this year’s forum include executive and non-executive directors of banks, directors of other financial institutions, heads of corporate banking departments, directors and heads of corporate finance of multinational companies and their counterparts in the public sector, PPP stakeholders, states commissioners, regulatory authorities, among others.
