The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on November 20, 2017 at the EFCC Academy, Karu, Abuja, commenced a five-day training for Officers of the Nigerian Stock Exchange, NSE.

 

The training is part of capacity building designed to enhance the exchange of knowledge and skills between the two agencies in furtherance of the Memorandum of Understanding, MoU, signed by the two bodies in 2013.

 

The course coordinator, S. U. Sanusi, said the training is designed to cover aspects of the operations of both agencies in line with the Acting Chairman, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu’s determination towards enhancing the competence of the investigating officers with the aim of achieving foolproof investigations that will stand the test of prosecution in the law court.

 

“The two agencies through this relationship rely on each other to conduct investigations of financial crimes especially on areas such as capital market fraud, insider abuse, securities/investment fraud amongst others”, Sanusi said.

 

 

Sanusi added that, “We at the EFCC have enjoyed similar trainings from the NSE in the areas of Capital market operations,.

 

This is the fifth batch of officers from the NSE to be trained at the EFCC Academy after the signing of the MoU.
