Moruf Oseni, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Wema Bank, has been appointed to chair the Consultative Committee for the 19th Annual Banking and Finance Conference organized by the Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria (CIBN).

The conference is scheduled for September 8 and 9, 2026, in Abuja. Under the theme “Building a Resilient Economy in an Era of Disruptions: Strategic Imperatives for the Banking and Financial Services Industry,” the event aims to gather policymakers, regulators, financial institutions, and technology providers to develop practical solutions for the sector.

Oseni noted that this edition is designed to be a significant expansion of previous years, incorporating cybersecurity programs, youth-focused sessions, and a new women-focused program intended to examine the role of women in creating an inclusive and resilient economy. The resolutions from the conference will be documented in a communiqué for relevant stakeholders and policymakers to assist in strategic alignment and decision-making.
