CSCS Records N2.11 Trillion Transactions - Market Efficiency Boost Expected!

The Central Securities Clearing System (CSCS) in Nigeria has reported a significant increase in transactions, reaching N2.11 trillion from May to August 2025, a 6% rise compared to the same period in 2024. The total volume of transactions amounted to 9 billion units across 4 million deals during the specified months.

The CSCS data revealed a steady growth in transaction values and volumes each month during the period. This positive trend is attributed to the support from capital market regulators and key industry stakeholders.

The CSCS is preparing for a transition in the settlement cycle effective from November 28, 2025, which is expected to enhance market efficiency.
