The second edition of the West Africa Capital Market Conference will be held by the West Africa Securities Regulators Association (WASRA) in partnership with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Ghana (SEC) (WACMaC).
The event will take place on May 24 and 25, 2022, at the Movenpick Ambassador Hotel.
WACMaC is a biennial conference that aims to provide the West African region, and indeed Africa as a whole, with the chance to discuss critical problems connected to the orderly expansion and development of regional and continental capital markets.
The subject for this year's conference is "Deepening and strengthening financial markets in West Africa via effective regulation." Dorothy Yeboah- Asiamah, Senior Manager for International Relations and WACMaC Chairperson, noted that the conference's goal is to "essentially offer a venue for the debate of extremely critical topics linked to the capital market across West Africa."
The West Africa Securities Regulators Association's flagship program is WACMaC. (WASRA).
The WASRA is a group of capital market regulators that includes Nigeria, Ghana, and the Conseil Regional de L'Epargne Publique et des Marches Financiers (CREPMF), which includes Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Guinea Bissau, Cote d'Ivoire, Togo, Burkina Faso, Benin Republic, and Niger.
Its mission is to promote market integration in the West African sub-region and to facilitate collaboration and dialogue among West African capital markets.
Access to Finance, Sustainable Finance, Enforcement, Cooperation, and Investor Protection, Investor Education, and Innovative Finance and Technology are some of the key topic areas that will be discussed in order to properly examine the issue for this year.
