THE REGULATORS

Standards • Accountability • Excellence

Vision Statement

To become Africa’s most authoritative and trusted platform advancing regulatory excellence, institutional integrity, and public-interest governance.

Editorial Mission

The Regulators is a pan-African thought-leadership magazine dedicated to strengthening regulatory institutions, advancing governance standards, and promoting excellence in regulation across Nigeria and the African continent.

We inform, interrogate, and inspire regulators, policymakers, professionals, private sector leaders, scholars, and engaged citizens through high-quality analysis, expert commentary, investigative insights, case studies, and comparative reviews focused on regulation, compliance, consumer protection, and institutional performance.

We believe effective regulation is foundational to:

• Sustainable economic growth
• Social justice and equity
• Market confidence and investor trust
• Institutional credibility and public accountability

Through independent journalism and rigorous intellectual engagement, The Regulators champions integrity, innovation, transparency, and continuous improvement in regulatory practice.

As the flagship knowledge publication of the Regulatory Excellence Drive (RED) under the Inspire Africa Initiative (IAI), the magazine serves as a trusted platform for learning, dialogue, reform, and cross-border collaboration — bridging policy and practice while connecting Africa’s regulatory community to global best practices.
