This surge is an indication of the growing investor interest in the fintech sector in Nigeria.
According to Tribune Online, the latest financial results of E-Tranzact showed that rising operating costs continued to weigh on profitability. However, the significant surge in the share price suggests that investors are optimistic about the company’s future prospects.
