Every Way to Invest in Nigeria's Capital Market. One Roof.

Whether you want to buy shares in Nigeria’s fastest-growing banks, lock in a government bond yield, build a managed portfolio for retirement, or navigate an inherited estate — Network Capital Limited has the licence, the team, and the track record to handle it. Here is what we do and how each service works.

Equity Trading (Stocks)

Buy and Sell Shares on the Nigerian Exchange.

The NGX lists over 150 companies across banking, oil and gas, consumer goods, insurance, industrials, agriculture, and technology. When you trade through Network Capital Limited, your mandate goes directly to the exchange floor — executed by our licensed dealing team at the best available price, not routed through an algorithm that prioritises speed over your best interest.

How It Works

Send us a mandate specifying what to buy or sell, how many units, and at what price. By email to your Relationship Officer, by phone, or through your Netcap Trader portal. We execute on the floor and send you a contract note within minutes. Your CSCS account is updated on T+1 settlement, and sale proceeds transfer directly to your bank account if you are on CSCS Direct Settlement.

Brokerage commission: up to 1.35% of transaction value. NGX/SEC fee: 0.3%. CSCS fee: 0.3%. Stamp duty: 0.075%. CSCS trade alert: ₦6 per ticket. VAT: 7.5% on applicable fees. Total breakdown is published on every contract note. No hidden charges. Ever.

Fixed Income & Bonds

Predictable Returns. Government Backing. No Sleepless Nights.

Not every naira should be chasing equity returns. Federal Government of Nigeria bonds have delivered consistent yields backed by the full faith and credit of the federal government — and for investors who want income stability alongside equity exposure, they are the most logical complement to a stock portfolio.

Our fixed income desk gives you access to FGN bonds, state government bonds, and corporate debt instruments. Whether you are an individual building a balanced portfolio, a retiree seeking regular coupon payments, or a corporate treasury manager optimising cash reserves — we structure allocations to match your liquidity needs and target return.

Why Fixed Income Now
With the CBN’s monetary policy rate elevated and bond yields historically high, the window to lock in long-duration FGN bond yields at these levels may not stay open indefinitely. Investors who moved into fixed income during previous high-yield environments saw meaningful capital appreciation when rates eventually normalised. Speak with our Fixed Income desk about where the opportunity sits today.

Portfolio Management

You Have a Life to Live. Let the Portfolio Run Itself.

Portfolio management is for investors who know they should be in the market but do not have the time — or the inclination — to track every earnings report, rights issue, and sector rotation. You tell us your goals, your risk tolerance, and your time horizon. We build the portfolio, monitor it continuously, and report to you every quarter.

You receive quarterly performance reports showing exactly what happened, why, and how your portfolio compares to the relevant benchmark. Your portfolio manager acts on every corporate action, so you never miss a rights subscription, a scrip dividend, or a material event on your holdings.

Who This Is For
Busy professionals who want exposure to Nigeria’s capital market without daily management. Diaspora Nigerians managing investments remotely. Retirees building income portfolios. Families consolidating inherited shares. High-net-worth investors who want professional oversight alongside self-directed accounts.

Exchange-Traded Funds (ETF)

Invest in a Basket. Get the Whole Sector.

An Exchange-Traded Funds lets you buy exposure to a group of assets — a market index, a sector, or a theme — in a single transaction on the NGX. Instead of picking one bank stock and hoping it outperforms, you hold a slice of the entire banking sector. Instead of researching every consumer goods company individually, you track the segment.

ETFs give you built-in diversification, lower transaction costs per unit of exposure, and the same settlement efficiency as a regular NGX equity trade. Your units are held in your CSCS account. Management fees are embedded in the ETF itself — what you pay Network Capital is the same brokerage and statutory charges as any other NGX trade.

NGX-listed ETFs include index-tracking funds, sector-themed products, and commodity ETFs, including NewGold. Speak with your Relationship Officer about current availability and which products complement your existing portfolio.

Commodities

Hard Assets. Real Value. An Economy Built on Resources.

Nigeria is one of Africa’s largest oil producers, a significant agricultural economy, and a growing participant in global commodities markets. Yet most Nigerian retail investors have zero direct commodity exposure in their portfolios — despite living in an economy whose fiscal health, currency, and inflation rate move with commodity prices.

Through regulated instruments available to Nigerian investors, Network Capital can help you access commodity-linked products that align with your risk profile. This is not speculative trading. It is a structured, regulated exposure to an asset class that Nigerian investors have historically underweighted relative to their economic environment.

Derivatives

Hedge a Position. Express a View. Trade with Precision.

A derivative is a financial instrument whose value is linked to an underlying asset — a stock, an index, a currency, or a commodity. Used correctly, derivatives allow experienced investors to hedge against portfolio losses, take directional views without deploying full capital, or lock in a future price on an asset they intend to buy or sell.

The Nigerian capital market is in the early stages of derivatives infrastructure development through FMDQ and the NGX. As regulated products become available to dealing members, Network Capital will offer access to eligible clients. We will only facilitate derivative strategies with clients who have the appropriate experience, financial capacity, and regulatory eligibility.

Institutional investors, corporate treasuries, and high-net-worth individuals seeking to hedge specific exposures should speak with our team directly.

Derivatives involve significant risk, including the possibility of losses exceeding your initial investment. These products are only suitable for experienced investors who fully understand the instruments and risks involved. Network Capital will assess your suitability before facilitating any derivative transaction.

Crypto Disclosure

Let's Be Honest About Crypto.

Network Capital Limited does not offer cryptocurrency trading, custody, or investment products. We are an SEC-regulated, licensed capital market operator. Our services are limited to instruments regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Nigeria, operating within the Nigerian capital market framework. Cryptocurrency is not within our regulatory scope, and we do not facilitate crypto transactions of any kind.

We include this page because our clients ask. The answer is clear: if someone contacts you claiming to offer crypto investment on behalf of Network Capital — through WhatsApp, Telegram, social media, or email — that is fraud. We do not operate crypto accounts, digital asset wallets, or guaranteed-return investment schemes.

What we do offer is regulated investment in Nigerian equities, bonds, ETFs, and other SEC-approved instruments — assets with legal protections, market oversight, proper documentation, and a firm that shows up with the same licence it had the day you opened your account.

Network Capital Limited does not offer cryptocurrency services. If you receive any offer of crypto investment claiming to be from us, do not engage. Call 0706 200 2333 to report it immediately.

Estate Administration & Probate

When a Loved One Passes, Their Investments Should Not Become a Problem.

Shares, bonds, and dividends do not sort themselves when someone dies. The process of transferring, recovering, or consolidating an investment portfolio through the Nigerian probate system is complex, time-sensitive, and emotionally taxing when you are also dealing with grief.

Network Capital Limited has guided families through this process many times. We work directly with the probate registry, CSCS, and registrars to handle Letters of Administration, share transfers, uncollected dividend recovery, and portfolio consolidation. We also assist living investors who want to ensure their wealth transfers efficiently — through proper nomination, estate planning, and account documentation reviewed while you are still here to direct it.

Share & Dividend Tracking and Recovery

You May Already Own Shares You Have Forgotten About.

There are over four hundred billion naira in unclaimed dividends sitting at Nigerian registrars right now. Some belong to investors who moved house and never updated their address. Some belong to public-offer subscribers from the early 2000s — UBA, GTBank, Zenith, Dangote — whose share certificates ended up in a drawer and were never dematerialised. Some belong to deceased shareholders whose families never knew the holdings existed.

If you ever subscribed to a Nigerian public offer, inherited a portfolio from a parent, or held physical share certificates before the move to electronic depository — you may be one of those investors. Network Capital recovers those holdings.

What We Trace and Recover
  • Unclaimed dividend warrants from registrars across the Nigerian capital market
  • Physical share certificates that were never dematerialised into a CSCS account
  • Share holdings from old public offers — banking, telecoms, oil and gas, consumer goods
  • Inherited portfolios where the shareholder has passed and the family lacks documentation
  • Forgotten holdings from former employers, ESOPs, and corporate share schemes
  • Bonus shares and scrip dividends issued on holdings you may not know you own

You give us whatever information you have — names from old certificates, partial CSCS numbers, the company you remember investing in, and the year you think you subscribed. Even fragmentary detail is enough to start. We run a global search across CSCS and the major Nigerian registrars to identify holdings tied to your name, your BVN, or your beneficiary status. Once located, we work with the registrar to verify ownership, dematerialise any physical certificates, recover unpaid dividends, and consolidate everything into your active CSCS account with Network Capital.

The process can take anywhere from two weeks to several months, depending on how cleanly the original records were kept. We charge a service fee on successful recoveries, disclosed upfront before we begin. No recovery, no fee.

  • Diaspora Nigerians who subscribed to public offers years ago and lost track
  • Family members of deceased shareholders trying to consolidate an estate
  • Long-time investors who held physical certificates before the CSCS era
  • Anyone who has received SMS notifications about uncollected dividends but does not know how to claim them

CSCS Account Services

Every Share You Own Lives Here.

The Central Securities Clearing System is Nigeria’s electronic depository for listed securities. Every share traded on the NGX is held in a CSCS account — not in a physical certificate, not in your broker’s name. In yours. When you open an account with Network Capital, we create your CSCS account automatically, link it to your BVN, and give you a unique CSCS number and Clearing House Number (CHN) that follows you for life.

Already have holdings with another broker? We process inter-member transfers through CSCS. Your shares move electronically from your existing broker to your Network Capital account. Nothing is sold. No positions are disrupted. It is simply a change of custodian — and a step up in service.
