He stated: *Delivering accurate and comprehensive fiscal data is critical to economic stability and investor confidence.<\/b>*<\/p>\n
Attendees agreed on the establishment of a Fiscal Data Coordination Framework, which includes a main committee, a subcommittee, and technical teams dedicated to standardising fiscal reporting methodologies and economic assumptions<\/p>\n

The meeting concluded with a firm commitment to implementing the framework, reinforcing transparency, strengthening investor confidence, and enhancing Nigeria\u2019s economic outlook.<\/p>\n
As Nigeria embarks on this transformative journey, one thing is clear: accurate and reliable fiscal data will be the cornerstone of the country’s economic resurgence.
