NGX Group Secures Funding Support From DEG Impulse To Kick Off N-Zero Programme In Nigeria

Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX Group), a leading integrated market infrastructure provider in Africa, has signed a funding agreement with DEG Impulse gGmbH, a subsidiary of the German Development Finance Institution, DEG – Deutsche Investitions-und Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH, part of KfW Bankengruppe, to commence the implementation of its flagship NGX Net-Zero Programme (N-Zero).

The recently signed agreement in Cologne, Germany, marks a major step forward in NGX Group’s efforts to strengthen climate resilience and promote low-carbon development across Nigeria’s private sector. The multi-billion-naira funding was secured under DEG Impulse’s develoPPP programme, which supports innovative private sector initiatives with high development impact.

N-Zero is designed to support businesses with the tools, frameworks, and technical guidance required to set, validate, and achieve science-based emission reduction targets. It aligns with Nigeria’s commitment to the Paris Agreement and the global goal of limiting temperature rise to 1.5°C.

By bringing together global climate partners, including implementing partner Africa Foresight Group (AFG), NGX Group, through N-Zero, will assist companies in developing credible transition plans and carbon projects that generate verifiable carbon credits, thereby supporting economic resilience, promoting green investments, and contributing to a decarbonized future.

Temi Popoola, Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of NGX Group, said:
“The signing of this agreement with DEG Impulse marks a significant milestone in our sustainability journey. This partnership demonstrates strong confidence in our vision to drive sustainable finance, build a climate-conscious private sector in Nigeria and champion climate action across Africa. Through N-Zero, we aim to translate ambition into measurable impact by reducing emissions and positioning Nigerian corporates to benefit from emerging opportunities in the global carbon market.”

Alhaji (Dr.) Umaru Kwairanga, Group Chairman of NGX Group, added:
“This initiative represents a bold step toward positioning NGX Group at the forefront of climate leadership in Africa. As we activate the N-Zero Programme, we reaffirm our long-standing commitment to innovation, sustainable development, and creating long-term value for the Nigerian economy. It is our firm belief that capital markets must play a central role in delivering climate solutions, and this partnership is a model for what is possible when global institutions collaborate with local expertise”.

Dr. Hubertus Pleister, Managing Director of DEG Impulse, commented: “With the support of the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the develoPPP initiative contributes to NGX’ transformation journey by addressing climate risks and advancing sustainability through strategic and innovative collaboration – reinforcing our shared commitment to building resilient capital markets and enabling long-term impact.”

The “NGX’ N-Zero Programme” will run from June 2025 to April 2027 and is expected to reduce or avoid 20,000 tons of greenhouse gas emissions. It will support at least 26 businesses in implementing environmental and social standards and provide access to carbon markets through credit registration and emissions offsetting. This collaboration underscores NGX Group’s commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 13 (Climate Action) and its role in advancing Nigeria’s transition to a more sustainable and inclusive economy.

SEC DG Calls For Inclusive Capital Market At United Capital Investment Forum

By Amaka Obiefuna

United Capital Asset Management, a subsidiary of leading Pan-African investment banking and financial services group, United Capital Plc, hosted the second edition of its flagship Investment Forum on Tuesday, June 25, 2025, at Eko Hotels and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.

Themed “Advancing Financial Inclusion through Investments: Bridging Nigeria’s Knowledge and Wealth Gap,” the event brought together dignitaries, capital market regulators, digital media innovators, and financial literacy advocates to examine how inclusive investments can accelerate sustainable economic growth.

Peter Ashade, Group CEO of United Capital Plc, commenced the forum by reaffirming the Group’s commitment to advancing financial inclusion and revisiting the vision that gave rise to the event. He said: “When we launched the inaugural edition, our goal was simple: to create space for meaningful engagement on the role of the capital market in building wealth and driving inclusive economic growth. Today, that goal remains the same, but the urgency is even greater.”

He further noted that despite improvements in access to basic financial services, capital market participation remains critically low, leaving a vast pool of economic potential untapped. He called on all stakeholders, competitors and regulators alike, to align efforts on a shared vision of inclusion, innovation, and sustainable growth for the capital markets.

Dr. Emomotimi Agama, who served as the Keynote Speaker, brought weight to the conversation in his capacity as Director General of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). His remarks set a compelling tone for the day, stressing that closing Nigeria’s financial literacy gap is not just a regulatory concern but a national imperative.

In a fireside chat with Peter Ashade, Group CEO of United Capital Plc, Dr. Agama advocated for structured and simplified channels to bring excluded Nigerians, especially those in the informal sector, into the capital market ecosystem. He spoke extensively about the newly enacted Investments and Securities Act (ISA) 2025, outlining how the reforms are designed to strengthen market integrity, enhance investor protection, and enable broader access to capital market opportunities, particularly for underserved populations.

The conversation also highlighted the power of media and credible digital influencers in correcting misinformation, combating Ponzi schemes, and promoting safe and long-term investment options. Echoing a shared belief, both leaders concluded that true financial inclusion goes beyond access; all Nigerians must be empowered with knowledge and confidence to build wealth and contribute meaningfully to economic growth.

The second half of the forum built on the momentum of the keynote, featuring actionable, cross-sector perspectives on building an inclusive investment ecosystem. Dr. Odiri Oginni, MD/CEO, United Capital Asset Management, kicked off the session with a compelling call to reduce Nigeria’s investment knowledge gap, supported by data-driven insights from Foyinsolami Akinjayeju, CEO of EFInA (Enhancing Financial Inclusion & Advancement).

“What people need is the understanding of finance – the understanding of risks, investments, returns and diversification. For us as capital market operators, we need to go beyond product presentation, but to give people actual information that would help them manage their finances properly”, said Dr. Oginni.

The ensuing panel session brought together distinguished thought leaders in capital market regulation, digital media, personal finance, and grassroot banking:

• Uche Uzoebo, CEO, SANEF

• Jude Chiemeka, CEO, Nigerian Exchange Ltd (represented by Abimbola Babasola, Head of the Trading and Products, Nigeria Exchange Ltd)

• Ugodre Obi-Chukwu, Founder, Nairametrics

• Oler Oladele, Founder, Money Wit Club

• Sola Adesakin, Founder, Smart Stewards

Together, they shared practical strategies on building financial trust in underserved communities, tailoring investment products to consumer needs, leveraging digital platforms and aligning policy to make capital market participation more inclusive and impactful.

The forum showcased United Capital Asset Management’s leadership and convening power in shaping national conversations on economic development. As one of Nigeria’s largest asset managers, with over ₦1 trillion in assets under management and 10 mutual funds, the firm continues to expand its portfolio of accessible investment solutions. These include the recently launched Children Investment Fund, joining an inclusive lineup that already features funds tailored to women, ethical investors, impact-driven individuals, and everyday Nigerians looking to grow wealth securely.

Universal Insurance, NHIA, PTAD, Rite Foods, Sponsor NAIPE 2025 AGM

By Amaka Obiefuna

The Universal Insurance Plc, National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA), Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) as well as Rite Foods Limited will sponsor the 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Nigerian Association of Insurance and Pension Editors (NAIPE).

This year’s NAIPE AGM will be held on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, at the Nigerian Insurers House in Victoria Island, Lagos.

NAIPE is the umbrella body for journalists covering insurance and pension sectors in Nigeria.

NAIPE holds its AGM in July every year and companies that sponsor the AGM have the unique opportunity to market their products and services to NAIPE members in the course of the event who will in-turn push out the information to the general public through publication of stories and analysis in their mediums and platforms.

Stories generated from the event will be in the media for over one month.
The Universal Insurance Plc is one of the nation’s largest personal lines insurer with over N8 billion in assets, selling eight major lines of insurance, including auto, property and commercial.

Universal Insurance offers a broad spectrum of insurance products for all types of businesses, corporate and individuals with unique services delivery.

According to Universal Insurance Plc, “Our vision is to be a dominant, specialised non life insurer in Nigeria, creating and delivering value to stakeholders while our mission is to offer specialised non life insurance protection to clients inspired by innovation, efficiency and prompt claims settlement.”

On the other hand, the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) was established under the National Health Insurance Act which was signed into law on 19 May 2022, replacing the National Health Insurance Scheme Act of 1999.

As of today, data shows that about 20 million Nigerians are covered by the scheme.

NHIA offers several benefits, including financial protection against high medical costs, access to quality healthcare services, and a comprehensive benefits package that covers a wide range of medical needs.

Also, the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) was established in 2013 and drawing its mandate from the Pension Reform Act of 2014, PTAD was tasked with consolidating and managing pensions under the Defined Benefit Scheme (DBS) for pensioners who retired on or before June 30, 2007 and did not transit to the Contributory Pension scheme.PTAD has marked a significant milestone of revolutionizing Nigeria’s public sector pension administrative system.

When the Directorate was created, it inherited a host of challenges that had long plagued the legacy pension offices. These offices, comprising the Police, Customs, Immigration, Prisons, and the Civil Service, as well as the Boards of Trustees of Treasury funded Parastatals, Universities and Research Institutions and Agencies, were historically managed in a fragmented, inefficient, and underfunded manner. By 2004, this mismanagement had culminated in pension liabilities exceeding N2 trillion.

On the helm of affairs of the Directorate is the Executive Secretary, Tolulope Abiodun Odunaiya, a dynamic and results-oriented professional with a proven track record of managing complex workflows and consistently driving measurable outcomes. She was appointed to the position in November 2024, by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Rite Foods Limited is the producer of Bigi Drinks, Fearless Energy Drinks, Sosa Fruit Drinks, and Rite and Bigi Sausage Rolls.

The company ably led by managing director/CEO, Mr. Seleem Adegunwa, believes in the power of innovation and its potential to change the recycling business.

As Nigeria’s top food and beverage manufacturer, it said: “we are committed to helping recyclers to adopt cutting-edge techniques to recycling plastic trash, particularly in coastal areas, among other Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives.

Blord Group Launches Blunt Gadgets, Targets Made-in-Nigeria Production by 2026

In a bold move to redefine the gadget and accessories market in Nigeria, Blord Group, a Bitcoin-based financial services company, has officially launched its wide range of Blunt Gadgets and Accessories at the Hilton Leisure Resort and Hotel, Awka.

The launch, held over the weekend, marked a significant milestone in the company’s diversification journey and was themed “Enough Is Enough for Fake Products.”

Speaking at the event, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Blord Group, Linus Williams Ifejika, said the decision to venture into gadgets was borne out of a difficult personal experience – an unwarranted detention by security agents that disrupted his financial services business.

“After that incident, God gave me the vision to go into gadgets and accessories that will be useful and durable for Nigerians,” he said.

Sharing his experience sourcing suppliers in China, Ifejika revealed that he was initially offered substandard products simply because he was Nigerian.

“The first factory I visited tried to sell me the same low-quality gadgets they offer to most Nigerian traders. I walked away. I later met a principled manufacturer whose products meet global standards. Ironically, most Nigerian importers avoid them because they refuse to cut corners,” he recounted.

Blord Group has since partnered with the high-quality Chinese manufacturer and is confident enough in the durability of its Blunt products to offer a six-month to one-year warranty.

Beyond importation, Ifejika disclosed that the company is laying the groundwork to begin local manufacturing of Blunt-branded smartphone accessories and electronics in Ebenebe, Anambra State.

“Blunt products will be manufactured in Nigeria. By 2026, we hope to have fully made-in-Nigeria gadgets,” he said.

According to him, the Ebenebe facility will serve not only as a production hub but also as a platform for youth employment, with the initial phase expected to engage over 500 workers.

He also noted that the firm is investing in product repackaging and brand repositioning to tackle the proliferation of fake and substandard gadgets in the Nigerian market.

“We launched these products to eradicate fake chargers. Nigerians have suffered for too long,” he added.

The event drew a crowd of enthusiastic guests, including notable personalities like White Smoke, Osinachi Blord, and Iyke Best, who praised the innovation and quality of the products.

They lauded the initiative as a model of the think-home philosophy and urged other affluent Ndi Anambra to channel investments back into the state.

A key highlight of the evening was the unveiling of Blunt products, including smartphone chargers, power banks, trackers, and sundry accessories, which immediately attracted interest from distributors and retailers.

With its bold expansion plan and quality assurance commitment, Blord Group is positioning Blunt as a trusted brand in Nigeria’s growing consumer electronics market.

Shell Pledges Support For Nigeria’s Ambitions For Energy Sufficiency

By Amaka Obiefuna

Managing Director, Shell Nigeria Exploration and production Company Limited, Ronald Adams… Speaking at a panel session at the 2025 Nigeria Oil and Gas Conference in Abuja.

Shell says it will continue to explore opportunities to invest in Nigeria as the country aims to achieve energy abundance.

Speaking at a panel session at the 2025 Nigeria Oil and Gas Conference in Abuja , Managing Director, Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company Ltd (SNEPCo) Ronald Adams referred to the expansion of its stake in the Bonga field, the FID on Bonga North and several other projects being considered including Bonga Southwest and HI as Shell’s vote of confidence in the future of Nigeria. But he declined to give specific timing on FIDs including that on HI.

Discussions at the panel session were based on the theme, “Pragmatically Achieving Energy Abundance,” and featured chief executives of oil companies and government functionaries who proposed steps towards achieving energy sufficiency as Nigeria targets net-zero emissions from fossil fuel by 2050.

Ronald said SNEPCo would build on its contributions to energy abundance by becoming more efficient and improve value across the value chain by working closely with the Nigerian Upstream Investment Management Services (NUIMS) and other stakeholders. “There is a requirement for us to push the envelope. We cannot rest on our oars,” he said.

He explained that Nigeria can achieve the ambition of net-zero emissions and at the same time provide cost-effective and efficient energy for a rising population by optimizing investments in hydrocarbon energy sources and quick renewable opportunities.

On the efforts of Shell towards net-zero emissions, the Managing Director said the company’s refreshed Powering Progress strategy aims to accelerate the transition “purposefully and profitably to low-carbon businesses by the early 2030s.”

He added: “It is important that government continues to support these efforts and those of other industry players through the right polices and creation of a conducive environment for businesses to thrive.”

SquirrelPR Launches GoBorderless.Africa To Reinvent Sponsored Content Distribution

By Winifred Bosa

African PR technology company, SquirrelPR has unveiled GoBorderless.Africa, a no-subscription, on-demand sponsored content marketplace designed to radically improve how brand, communication, and marketing teams execute media visibility campaigns across Africa.

GoBorderless.Africa enables users to place sponsored press articles directly with verified news outlets in multiple African markets, including Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Egypt, and Côte d’Ivoire, all from a single, self-serve platform. Whether launching a new product, announcing a strategic partnership, running a perception campaign, or implementing a regional SEO backlink strategy, users can now browse a catalogue of top-tier publishers, view their pricing and publishing terms, and submit stories directly for review.

“For far too long, African communications professionals have had to work with fragmented, informal processes just to secure media placements,” said James Ezechukwu, Co-founder of SquirrelPR. “GoBorderless.Africa replaces that friction with structure, transparency, and speed – it’s modern media buying for modern storytelling.”

Publications available on the platform include TechCabal, Pulse Ghana, Nairametrics, The Africa Report, BusinessDay, Business Insider Africa, and others. Each listing includes the outlet’s name, pricing, turnaround time, and category – allowing users to build targeted, cross-border campaigns with speed and clarity.

Africa’s media landscape remains among the most fragmented in the world. Thousands of newsrooms operate independently across regions and languages, with no centralized pricing or editorial standards. As a result, communications teams often struggle to scale their visibility across multiple markets without relying on expensive PR agencies, ad hoc freelance agents, or inconsistent delivery timelines. Worse, payments to media partners are often difficult across borders, leading to project delays and failed executions.

GoBorderless.Africa bridges this gap. By centralizing discovery, pricing, publishing, and payment into one trusted platform, it helps agencies, government communication teams, and in-house marketers execute with confidence. It also offers media outlets a new revenue model by monetizing sponsored editorial space without compromising credibility.

“We’re enabling professionals to tell bigger stories, in bigger places,” Ezechukwu added. “And we’re giving African media a stronger bridge to the brands that want to support them.”

900+ AXA Employees Campaign Against Domestic And Sexual Violence

AXA Employees Take Campaign Against Domestic, Sexual Violence to Schools | Business Post Nigeria

More than 900 employees of Nigeria’s leading Insurance Company, AXA Mansard, have volunteered for different activities to combat the scourge of domestic and sexual violence against children across the country.

In commemoration of its annual social responsibility week, AXA Week for Good, hundreds of the company’s employees visited various schools across Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, educating students and teachers on the identification, prevention, and reporting of sexual and domestic violence.

AXA Week for Good is the flagship volunteering programme of AXA Hearts In Action (AHIA), a programme through which AXA encourages its employees to contribute to positive societal and environmental impacts through volunteering, expertise, related financial support, and in-kind donations.

“Through the AHIA, our employees do not just give time to great causes; we work together for a better future. We share our knowledge and expertise as a people with a shared purpose of acting for human progress by protecting what matters by helping vulnerable communities and people around us,” said Rashidat Adebisi, Chief Client Officer, AXA Mansard.

Under the theme “Being a Girl Shouldn’t Be A Risk,” AXA Mansard employees participated in awareness walks to sensitize the public about the danger of domestic and sexual violence on children and the nation’s future.

According to Adebisi, this theme presents the organization with an opportunity to demonstrate the social, economic, and ethical benefits of protecting the girl child. She said Nigeria’s 105 million children and adolescents aged 0–17 years represent about half of the country’s population.

“For a country betting its economic growth on the strength and human capital of its young population, the alarming rate and spate of Violence Against Children (VAC) threatens the future not just of our country, but of the African continent.”

She noted that the staggering reality that 60% of Nigerian children experience one or more forms of violence before age 18 is a call to action for everyone, and “our employees are responding to this clarion call so that the thousand of Nigerian girls who go through physical, emotional, sexual and psychological violence can find safe places to get help; but most important, we can rid our society of perpetrators,” she furthered.

In 2024, more than 50% of AXA Mansard employees, through various volunteering activities under the AHIA, clocked over 23,000 volunteering hours. Their dedication underscores the company’s deep-rooted belief that real impact begins with people.

As they continue to lead by example, AXA Mansard remains committed to championing initiatives that protect the most vulnerable in society. By empowering its employees to take meaningful action, the company continues to demonstrate that corporate responsibility goes beyond business it is about building a safer, more inclusive future for all.
