The Smart Treasure Investment Team (ST Team) has held the maiden edition of its business banquet at Vertigo Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, to discuss the platform’s vision and legitimacy amidst Nigeria’s uncertain economic climate.
Trust Otorudo, the regional head for Lagos, introduced the ST Team, including VIP 9 leaders Mrs. Fola Abiodun; Princewill Otorudo and the legal consultant Barrister Isaac Adediran.
Mr Trust emphasized the platform’s commitment to improving financial status through AI-driven trading and data analysis.
According to him, “People should engage in this platform if they want to truly improve their financial status,” Mr. Trust said. “The ST team is not a fake project. You can do your own research and investigative journalism.”
Mr. Trust highlighted the platform’s use of artificial intelligence to predict trades accurately, stressing the importance of moving from traditional means to AI-driven methods of making money.
“Our vision is to reduce poverty rates in Africa by 30% come 2027, with our major focus on Nigeria,” he added. “We believe strongly in public-private partnership and are currently in the incubation stage of our SEC approval.”
Mrs. Fola Abiodun shared her motivation for spreading the news about the platform, emphasizing the importance of financial stability for societal security.
“I believe that when we have more people doing well in society, there won’t be a cause for stealing and robbery,” Abiodun said. “That’s one of the drives that made me reach out to my colleagues, friends, and family.”
The ST Team aims to provide an enabling environment for individuals to achieve their goals, whether in agriculture, education, or manufacturing, while also making money virtually.
Addressing concerns about potential challenges from banks, Mr. Trust clarified that the ST Team does not trade the Naira and poses no threat to Nigerian banks.
“We are not a threat to any bank. We do not trade the Naira, and we have no business with fiat currencies,” he said. “The banks will enjoy doing business with us.”
The team also discussed their corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives, which include supporting education and community development projects.
When asked about the platform’s incorporation and licensing, Mr Trust revealed that ST Team was incorporated in 2025 and is currently awaiting its full Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) license.
The banquet concluded with a call to action for individuals to take advantage of the opportunities provided by the ST Team to improve their financial status and contribute to reducing unemployment in Nigeria.
