The policy designed to accelerate the greater participation of Nigerians in the ownership and management of business enterprises in Nigeria is called Indigenization.

Indigenization refers to efforts and policies implemented to transfer ownership and control of enterprises and resources from foreign and non-national entities to the nationals of a country. The aim is to increase the involvement of local citizens in the economy of their country, ensuring that they have a substantial stake in the economic activities.

In the context of Nigeria, the indigenization policy was meant to empower Nigerians by enabling them to own and manage businesses. This was achieved by legally requiring certain levels of Nigerian ownership and participation in various sectors of the economy. Such policies were put in place to reduce foreign control and ensure that the wealth generated within the country contributed to national development and was accessible to the citizens of Nigeria.
