We are excited to introduce you to a book titled “Banking Reforms in Africa: Implications for Economic Welfare and Poverty Reduction” by Dr. Agnes Tokunbo Martins, published by Routledge: Taylor & Francis Group.

Drawing upon her extensive professional and academic journey, Dr. Martins, in this book, offers an in-depth examination of the complex interplay between banking reforms and socio-economic outcomes across the African continent. With a focus on strategically selected economies such as South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, and the MENA region, this book comprehensively analyses the historical evolution and contemporary challenges of banking reforms, emphasizing their critical role in enhancing economic resilience and reducing poverty.
