In his presentation titled, ‘Hedging pension funds against market volatility’, Yinkere, noted that 2020 was a peculiar year, especially for investors, as the financial markets were impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.

The VP, Global Markets at Parthian Partners, Mrs. Ola Oladele, stressed the importance of investing, noting that while all investments provide rewards in one form or the other, “For each type of investment, there are always risks.”

The CEO and Co-founder of Cowrywise, Mr. Razaq Ahmed, stressed the importance of financial education for investors.

“The fact that you are taking risks is not enough; it will depend on the nature of the asset class. You still need to have a basic knowledge of the asset class.”
