The financial and technology communities are gearing up for the 2025 Business Journal Annual Lecture, where Mr. Olatunde Amolegbe, the Managing Director/CEO of Arthur Stevens Asset Management Limited, will deliver the keynote address on the critical nexus of technology and economic advancement, reports ITREALMS.
The high-profile lecture, themed "AI & Digital Economy: Projecting the Future of Economic Growth in Nigeria," is scheduled for Tuesday, December 16, 2025, at the Oriental Hotel, Lekki Road, Victoria Island, Lagos, starting at 10:00 am prompt.
The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital transformation is currently reshaping Nigeria's financial landscape, requiring substantial investment, regulatory clarity, and risk management— areas where Amolegbe's expertise is paramount.
The keynote is expected to provide a road map for leveraging digital tools and AI to mobilize the massive capital required for infrastructure and innovation, especially by analyzing the roles of Fintech, e-channels, and capital market digitalization in achieving national economic resilience.
Mr. Olatunde Amolegbe is a distinguished leader known for his advocacy for digital adoption within the capital market. As the immediate past President and Chairman of Council of the Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers (CIS), he notably championed the digitalization of institutional operations and training.
His firm, Arthur Stevens Asset Management Limited, is a key player in investment banking, corporate finance, and asset management. Amolegbe’s insights are critical for understanding how digital innovation can be strategically financed and managed for sustainable growth.
He holds advanced degrees in Economics, Business, and Corporate Finance from the University of Ilorin and the University of Liverpool.
Prince Cookey, the Publisher/Editor-in-Chief of Business Journal Media Group, emphasized the timeliness of the choice: “The choice of Mr. Olatunde Amolegbe is based on his enviable track record of financial industry leadership and thought process on current and emerging issues. We expect a robust conversation on the intricate balance between AI and digitalisation in national economies and corporate boardrooms, particularly as it relates to capital mobilization and governance.”
