NASD PLC has embarked on implementation of a number of key initiatives to strengthen its operations, diversify revenue sources, boost profitability and deliver value to shareholders.

The premier OTC Exchange in Nigeria has traded N50bn by week 36 this year as against N37. 57bn traded in the entire period of 2023. Its Enterprise Portal platform (NASDeP), worth over N2bn has commenced operations on a gradual basis.

According to a statement signed by its Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Eguarekhide Longe, the Exchange is focusing on promoting high growth (medium-large) companies on the NASD.

” Enterprise Portal (NASDeP), the NASD Digital Securities Platform (N-DSP), which is being implemented under the SEC Regulatory Incubation program, promotes Security Token Offerings (STOs) largely instrumental and evolving in financing real estate development in a novel way . It also has in its portfolio, VentureRamp – the Donor Crowdfunding platform, which is a structured and effective channel for scaling endowments for communities and groups such as alumni associations wanting to have a trusted medium that delivers social responsibility projects (SRPs). With this trajectory, the Exchange is optimistic to close the year with a profit and aspires to pay a dividend for the year.

” NASD has strong potentials to weather the on-going tough operating environment. The Board and Management shall continue to explore more opportunities to upscale its operations. It is common knowledge that every securities market is a reflection of the economy.

” The Company has secured approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to hold its 11th Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Thursday, September 24, 2024, at Colonades Hotel, Ikoyi Lagos., said Longe.

NASD is a Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) licensed Securities Exchange. A Securities Exchange is a public trust that requires discipline and decorum to operate. This is very central to the conduct of everyone that functions at NASD PLC.
