Joseph Edgar, a columnist and investment banker, has announced the launch of The Alvin report.

He said the report was launched in a quest to revisit engagements on national discuss especially as it affects economy, business, finance and public policy.

The report is an online platform that has been designed to encourage fact based and logic conversations driven by experts and intellectuals in the chosen field.

Edgar said discussions on these issues have been taken over by a ‘lot of noise’ especially with the immediacy and almost no entry barriers social media now affords.

“Consequently, honest and above the line conversations have been crowded out by mostly ‘beer parlor’ type conversations which unknowingly seeps into Policy making and Execution. Sadly, this situation also negatively impacts human capital especially at the highest levels of policy making,” he said.

“It is in this situation, that The Alvin Report has been born. It pushes very strongly fact based Articles and Essays from some of the most brilliant minds in the Country. The articles are well researched and written to withstand the most strident fact- check and intellectual scrutiny.”

According to Edgar, the report parades over thirty-seven well-articulated contributors and a dream team of editors led by Jonathan Eze, former chief operating officer of Leadership Newspapers.

It also parades contributors like developmental economist Magnus Onyibe, , distinguished accountant JK Randle, renowned economist Tope Fasua, Kola Adeshina director at Sahara Group, Temi Sobowale leading expert on artificial intelligence and analytics amongst others.

“The Alvin Report is poised to arrowhead a renaissance in attitudes, thought processes and discuss.” he added.
