Investors Developing Confidence in Bitcoin: Nigeria’s Apex Bank Plans Regulation
“Every investor settles in an area of superior confidence and that is the gap between the Nigerian investor and Cryptocurrencies”. This assertion was made to CoinTelegraphCT in a telephone talk with seasoned investment banker Stephen Ekene Isiuwe, a Business Professional with Investment One Financial Services Limited, Abuja on Tuesday November 24th, 2015.
Investors are a bit shy
Stephen Isiuwe is a Business Professional with Investment One Financial Services Limited, formerly known as GTB Asset Management Limited (GTBAM), the former investment and wealth management subsidiary of Guaranty Trust Bank Plc (GTBank), one of Africa’s leading Banks.
Having been in the industry for about two decades, Mr Isiuwe said that prior to this time the average Nigerian investor possessed a gullible approach to new investment opportunities and usually jumped at new options with unprecedented enthusiasm. This was true until about five years ago when the so called “wonder-banks” emerged with different brands of products that looked very promising, but when things eventually turned bad, there was no safety net to fall back to. That, in his opinion, is the reason for the relative reluctance in accepting bitcoinCT within the Nigerian population.
