Nigeria’s financial technology provider InfoWARE has being declared Financial Technology Provider of the Year 2019 for the second consecutive time in a row.

Speaking at the 5th Nigeria Finance Innovation Awards held in Lagos, Akin Naphtal, the CEO/Founder of InstinctWave stated that the role of the financial sector and its importance to national development and growth cannot be underestimated, hence the need to reward those pushing boundaries in the public and private financial industry.

InfoWARE Limited, fondly dubbed as the “Operating System for Business” has established itself as the premier FinTech hub in Pan-Africa; having been listed by the London Stock Exchange Group as ‘one of the companies to inspire Africa.

In his acceptance speech, InfoWARE’s CEO, Uwa Agbonile who was also honoured with the FinTech CEO of the year award dedicated the prize to the InfoWARE Team and InfoWARE’s amazing customers.

“In line with our vision to drive “technovation” InfoWARE will launch its unified Execution Management System (EMSX) platform which is a single API surface to connect and trade with any and all SELL side institutions in Nigeria with integrated real-time analytics,” Agbonile said.

The new platform will not only disrupt the “norm” but would enable FinTech’s to seamlessly route trades leveraging the EMSX trading API to provide access to the Nigerian market for foreign investors, and ultimately connect buy-side firms and investment banks to solutions provided by other buy and sell-side firms, execution venues and technology partners.

Recall in September, InfoWARE launched new software called Grow My Kudi, an interactive platform for students, stockbrokers and investment enthusiasts who want to explore real-time market data to virtually invest and place trades.

InfoWARE caters to the needs of well over 150 enterprise customers in sub-Sahara Africa. InfoWARE with its portfolio and funds management solution, Order and Execution management solution, Market data terminal, and robust end-to-end ERP solutions have enabled its customers improve operational efficiency.
