(Video) Jack-Rich Harps On Economic Liberalisation Strategy For Private Capital Boom In 2023

An entrepreneur, and one of the APC Presidential aspirants in the last Convention, Mr. Tein Jack-Rich says, only an economic liberalisation strategy will help Nigeria overcome its current challenges.

Mr. Jack-Rich who gave the indication in a statement in Abuja, stressed that it remained a phenomenal tool to activate private capital growth, and to join the trillion-dollar economic league.

Jack-Rich said to achieve this, policy makers must award deep tax cuts, promote sectoral economic stimulus through soft credit lines to help indegenous companies produced the country’s needs. 

According to the philanthropist, global economic trend has its impact on Africa, which accounts for only three per cent of global trade with seven per cent of trade deficit.

He explained that It was difficult for Nigeria to survive a hike in interest rate as the best monetary policy response to address surging inflation, since the current inflation was cost push rather than demand pull.

Mr. Jack-Rich therefore, called for a holistic approach to the country’s economic policies, as ignoring economic stimulus and pushing interest rate hike would increase unemployment rates, and exacerbate the wind of economic recession.
