The anticipation is already building for the 6th Edition of the International Rating Webinar.
A statement by DataPro over the weekend says they wanted to send a quick reminder to stakeholders to mark their calendars for this pivotal event.
According to the firm, this year’s strategic deliberations will be centered on “Sovereign Credit Rating: Africa’s Roadmap to Investment-Grade Status.”
While Nigeria’s recent sovereign credit rating upgrade from B- to B is widely regarded as a positive signal to global investors and a reflection of growing confidence in ongoing economic reforms.
However, for African nations, the journey toward full investment-grade status requires deliberate adherence to qualitative and quantitative economic disciplines capable of strengthening investor confidence and enhancing sovereign credibility in the international financial market.
“We are bringing together policymakers, development institutions, financial market operators, and corporate stakeholders to unpack these critical next steps.”
Event Details:
Date: 8th October 2026
Time: 14:00 – 16:00 WAT

“If you have not already done so, please save the date in your calendar and stay tuned for the unveiling of our speaker lineup very soon.
This year’s program is expected to provide the needed road map to build on by all stakeholders. We are delighted to have you on board for this essential conversation regarding the future of our economic landscape.”
