Story: written by uzuh Rita october 17,2025
The Federal Government of Nigeria has begun engaging international investors in preparation for its planned $2.3 billion Eurobond issuance, aimed at strengthening the nation’s foreign reserves and supporting fiscal stability.
According to government sources, top officials from the Ministry of Finance and the Debt Management Office (DMO) are holding meetings with potential investors across major financial hubs, including London, New York, and Dubai, to attract strong participation in the upcoming bond sale.
The Eurobond, expected to be floated before the end of the year, forms part of Nigeria’s broader strategy to boost external financing, bridge budget deficits, and restore investor confidence in Africa’s largest economy.
Experts note that the success of the bond issuance will depend on market sentiment, Nigeria’s credit rating, and ongoing economic reforms introduced under President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
The government hopes the Eurobond will demonstrate renewed investor trust in Nigeria’s macroeconomic direction, following key policy shifts such as foreign exchange unification and fuel subsidy removal.
