Investor participation on Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) surged in the first 10 months of 2025, with total transactions climbing to N9.57 trillion, more than double the N4.47 trillion posted in the corresponding period of 2024.
The recent Domestic and Foreign Portfolio Participation Report released by NGX shows that the market recorded its strongest activity level yet, driven by heightened interest from Pension Fund Administrators (PFAs), high-net-worth investors, and a steady rise in retail participation.
Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) traded N2.03 trillion during the period, representing a 172.4 percent increase from the N744 billion recorded a year earlier. Domestic investors remained the dominant force, accounting for N7.54 trillion in trades, up 102.4 percent from N3.73 trillion in the same period of 2024.
