PenCom

PenCom's upward revision of equity exposure limits for retirement savings funds could release nearly N1 trillion in immediate liquidity into the Nigerian Exchange, while parallel reforms in tax administration and regional banking policy signal broader structural shifts across West Africa's largest economy.

Six major Nigerian deposit money banks reported combined customer loans of N33.99 trillion, marking 9.2% growth despite intensifying fintech competition, while the stock market advanced N6.79 trillion week-on-week following pension fund equity limit increases.
