Bells Toll in Honour of Peter Ashade
Peter Ashade has become a pivotal figure in the transformation of United Capital and is leading with a vision that has elevated the firm to new heights. His innovative thinking has placed United Capital at the forefront of financial services in Africa. It is no wonder that his work has drawn attention from industry experts and investors alike.
Ashade is doing great things at United Capital. Recently, he got many big ‘thumbs up’ for United Capital’s groundbreaking issuance of Nigeria’s first domestic dollar-denominated bond. This bond, oversubscribed by more than 180%, raised over $900 million, a feat that stands as a testament to Ashade’s financial acumen.
The success of the bond in question reinforces the confidence investors have in Nigeria’s economy and Ashade’s leadership at United Capital. Indeed, it has opened doors for future capital raises, not only for Nigeria but for other African nations as well.
It is clear, however, that Ashade’s impact goes beyond the success of the bond; he has also strengthened United Capital’s position as a leader in Africa’s financial markets. By introducing innovative investment opportunities, Ashade is contributing to the growth of Nigeria’s infrastructure and overall economy.
The man’s vision is obviously clear: he aims to transform the African financial landscape by providing opportunities that empower both local and international investors. His leadership has turned United Capital into a beacon of financial growth in Africa.
Considering Ashade’s extensive background, spanning roles in multiple financial institutions and professional bodies, it is expected that he can so excellently steer United Capital towards excellence. His involvement with organizations like the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria and the Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria is enough evidence of this background.
In his case, the proverb rings true: “A good leader is like a river; he flows with strength and direction.” Under Ashade’s guidance, United Capital continues to break new ground and achieve unprecedented success.
