CBN's HoldCo Shake-Up, Wills & Trusts, and the Inflation Nobody Can Escape

In this episode of Drinks & Mics, we sit down with Rita Imonieroh, Managing Director of FCMB Trustees Limited, for a timely conversation on wealth protection, estate planning, trusts, wills, inflation, and the changing financial landscape in Nigeria. Many Nigerians still believe trusts and wills are only for the rich, but this episode breaks down why every income class should care about succession planning, asset protection, and how to ensure that wealth, no matter how small or large, is properly transferred. We also discuss the wider economic issues shaping financial decisions today, including the CBN HoldCo shake-up, persistent inflation, and what households, investors, business owners, and families should be thinking about in an uncertain economy.
