This is a sub-unit of our corporate and commercial practice. The period between 1993-1998 witnessed a downturn in the flow of direct foreign investment in the Nigerian economy with most corporations divesting their interests largely because of the unstable economic climate.

However, the opposite is now the case with new companies moving into various sectors especially the Finance, Energy, Information Technology and Telecommunications sectors. Bearing this in mind, and coupled with the peculiarities of the Nigerian economic climate, most prospective investors require specialized legal advice when entering into Joint Venture or making Foreign Direct Investments in Nigeria.

At Fortbanc Solicitors, we offer legal advice and services that encompass a plethora of issues which include initial pre-investment advice, through to disinvestment procedures. Professional contacts within relevant government agencies and departments further enable us to act in our clients' best interests. This unit offers support for all investors regardless of the sector in which such investment is to be made.
