Coronation Securities and Merchant Bank Launch Lending Solution

Coronation Securities and Coronation Merchant Bank have introduced a structured securities-backed lending (SBL) solution designed for high net worth and ultra-high net worth clients in Nigeria. This innovative product allows eligible clients to borrow against qualifying equity portfolios held at Coronation Securities, enabling them to maintain ownership and market exposure.

The initiative aims to provide disciplined access to liquidity without disrupting long-term investment positions. Azeezat Awonuga, who leads the product team at Coronation Securities, emphasized the importance of this solution in Nigeria's rapidly evolving capital market, which increasingly requires options for retail and institutional investors.

The structured credit framework reflects a commitment to ensuring clients can fully benefit from market opportunities while preserving their carefully constructed portfolios. This model is expected to play a significant role in deepening Nigeria's capital market and empowering investors to manage their wealth efficiently.
