      <video:title><![CDATA[Will CBN’s hold stance slow private sector credit growth?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Commercial banks may sustain strong earnings momentum in the short-term following the MPC’s decision to maintain benchmark rates and reserve requirements. However, analysts say the broader economy could face slower private sector credit growth. With CRR for Deposit Money Banks held at 45 per cent and non-TSA public sector deposits at 75 per cent, they also argue that liquidity sterilisation remains a major constraint on banks’ lending appetite. Nabila Mohammed, Banking Sector Analyst at Chapel Hill Denham joins CNBC Africa for more on the outlook for the banking sector.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Biashara Afrika 2026: Advancing private sector participation in AfCFTA]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[As Africa accelerates the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area, attention is increasingly turning toward the role of the private sector in transforming policy into practical economic growth. While 54 of the 55 African states have signed the AfCFTA Agreement, questions remain around how effectively businesses across the continent are being integrated into the process.
From harmonising competition laws and codifying trade regulations the private sector is expected to play a central role in unlocking the full potential of intra-African trade. But concerns persist that private sector participation within the AfCFTA ecosystem remains fragmented and uneven. On the side-lines of the AfCFTA's Biashara Afrika conference, CNBC Africa's Keamo Mosepele spoke to Lucy Surhyel Newman, Chairperson at Africa Private Sector Summit.

      <video:description><![CDATA[As the world grapples with rising geopolitical tensions, ongoing wars and increasing trade fragmentation, global supply chains are undergoing a major structural shift — moving away from efficiency-driven globalisation toward resilience, regionalisation and economic security. For Africa, some analysts argue this disruption could create a unique industrial opportunity, from local manufacturing and beneficiation to the development of regional trade corridors and supply chains. And as the continent marks Africa Day today, we explore whether this moment could accelerate Africa's industrialisation journey. Joining CNBC Africa is African industrialist and Founder of TRT Investments, Adam Molai. ]]></video:description>
