NASD SECURITIES EXCHANGE POSTS STELLAR GROWTH IN 2025

The NASD Securities Exchange delivered a strong performance in 2025, with total market capitalization surging to N2.12 trillion, a 106% increase from N1.03 trillion in 2024. The growth was driven by fresh listings and broad-based price gains across its securities.
The Exchange said its diversification strategy is yielding results, with increased activity in equities, fixed-income instruments, and digital securities, signaling a shift from strategy formulation to execution. While activity on the flagship over-the-counter market remained moderate, it was bolstered by new company admissions and improved stability among existing securities.
The NASD Pension Index also recorded impressive gains, climbing 215% to 3,002.68 points from 954.33 points in 2024. Listing activity continued to be a major driver of growth on the platform, the Exchange noted.
NASD Managing Director and CEO, Eguarekhide Longe, said the results reinforce NASD’s position as Nigeria’s leading alternative securities exchange, offering flexible capital-raising and investment platforms beyond the traditional exchange framework.
