Shobanjo noted that the evolution of fraud has moved from manual to digital across all sectors with criminal elements taking advantage of the digital opportunities to stay a step ahead. He emphasized the need for NGX to strengthen its collaboration with the EFCC towards effective protection of the stock market's integrity. “I remember we signed an MOU in 2013 which worked many years ago, we want to see how we can bring that back, because we need your assistance and support in protecting the integrity of the market. In 2024, we saw a very big push in the market, unfortunately with this success, we are also seeing criminal elements looking to take advantage of this. It is time we now looked at how we can strengthen this collaboration. For us, we don’t have criminal jurisdiction, but we know your powers are very broad in this area and you have the expertise to support us especially in protecting the integrity of the market and our investors,” he said
