Dangers of High-Risk Deals in Nigeria & Africa (2025–2026)
High-risk deals in Nigeria and Africa pose significant challenges for businesses. These deals often come with political risk, regulatory changes, and operational vulnerabilities, increasing exposure to financial losses and reputational damage.
Key Insights from Search Results:
- **Elevated Risks for Nigerian Financial Sector**: Nigerian banks face heightened political risk, regulatory changes, and operational vulnerabilities in 2026, increasing exposure to high-risk deals. Unstable policies and enforcement gaps may disrupt partnerships or investments.
- **Cybersecurity Threats in African Partnerships**: A 2025 *Risk in Focus* survey (n=1,043 African respondents) highlights cybersecurity as a critical risk for business collaborations. Weak digital infrastructure exposes deals to fraud and data breaches.
- **Growth Amid Structural Challenges**: Sub-Saharan Africa’s projected economic growth (4.40% in 2026 vs. 4.10% in 2025) hinges on policy reforms. High-risk deals could falter if reforms stall or fail to address systemic issues like corruption or compliance gaps.
