Strategy and
Intelligence.
For Nigeria's Defining Moments.
CI Group is a management consulting and advisory firm. We work with businesses and institutions to pursue growth, strengthen their position, address complex challenges and turn ambitious plans into practical progress.
When the Decision Is Too Consequential to Get Wrong
A market entry can turn on regulatory timing. A transaction can depend on stakeholder confidence. An institutional decision can succeed on paper and fail in public. Leadership needs to understand the whole terrain before it acts.
CI Group brings the relevant intelligence and specialist judgment into one advisory relationship. We identify what can change the outcome, shape the response, and remain engaged through execution.
Expertise for the decisions that matter.
CI Group brings together business strategy, intelligence, reputation, and public affairs expertise to help organisations grow, manage change, and protect their ability to operate.

Nigerian Banks Have Raised the Capital. Can They Earn the Return?
Nigeria’s banks have spent two years making the case for fresh capital. Their next task is to demonstrate what the enlarged capital base will enable them to do better.
Putting Nigeria’s ₦4.7 Trillion in Banking Capital to Work
Nigeria has demonstrated its ability to mobilise substantial capital for its banks. The more consequential question is whether that achievement will change the financing available to its businesses.

Our sector experience
Over a decade of client work has given CI Group a close understanding of the regulatory decisions, institutional interests, and stakeholder relationships that shape business outcomes in Nigeria. We draw on that experience to help clients assess opportunities, anticipate resistance, and carry their plans into practice.
Confidence is shaped by more than financial performance. We help institutions navigate regulatory expectations, stakeholder scrutiny, and the communications surrounding transactions, change, and market position.
Production decisions meet policy, supply chains, capital, and community interests. We help manufacturers understand those intersections and build the alignment needed to invest, expand, or protect operating continuity.
Major projects move through long timelines and multiple centres of influence. We help leaders align commercial strategy, public engagement, reputation, and delivery so that progress on one front is not undone on another.
Growth can move faster than regulation and public understanding. We help technology businesses enter markets, interpret policy signals, establish institutional trust, and explain the value of what they are building.
Public programmes must work in practice and withstand public scrutiny. We help institutions navigate stakeholder interests, communicate decisions clearly, and sustain confidence through implementation.
