NGX unveils commercial paper listings<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Nigerian Exchange Limited has introduced Commercial Paper listings, following approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a statement from the NGX on Wednesday, the new market offering will deepen Nigeria\u2019s short-term debt market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PUNCH<\/em> reports that with the new listing window for commercial papers, NGX now offers an integrated environment spanning equities, fixed income, ETFs, derivatives and short-term debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commenting on the launch, Group Managing Director\/Chief Executive Officer of NGX Group, Temi Popoola, commended the Securities and Exchange Commission for its commitment to enabling market advancement and fostering healthy competition across the ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He stated, \u201cThe introduction of Commercial Paper listings is a pivotal step in our strategy to position NGX as a comprehensive capital-markets infrastructure that accelerates capital formation across Africa. As we continue strengthening the foundations of a transparent, technology-driven and inclusive marketplace, our focus remains on building a system that supports sustainable growth, enhances market resilience and unlocks new opportunities for the broader economy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commercial papers are short-term, unsecured debt instruments issued by corporates to finance working capital needs and other short-term obligations. Typically maturing within 270 days, CPs are issued at a discount and redeemed at face value upon maturity, offering corporates a cost-effective alternative to bank loans and providing investors with attractive short-term investment opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also speaking on the development, CEO of the Nigerian Exchange Limited, Jude Chiemeka, added, \u201cThe introduction of Commercial Paper listings represents a major advancement in our mission to provide a full spectrum of capital-raising solutions for businesses. \u201cThis platform enhances transparency in the debt market and supports corporates seeking efficient access to funding outside traditional banking channels, while offering investors credible short-term investment options. NGX will continue to engage with corporates, intermediaries, and investors to deepen liquidity and participation in Nigeria\u2019s debt capital market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CEO of NGX Regulation Limited, Olufemi Shobanjo, added that strong oversight will remain central as the market evolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur priority is to maintain high standards of disclosure, promote accountability and safeguard investor confidence while contributing to market deepening,\u201d he emphasised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the new offering, corporates and issuers will be able to list and trade both conventional and non-interest commercial papers directly on the NGX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
