Domestic Investors Dominate NGX Trades With N1.67trn In July
In July 2025, domestic investors dominated trading activity on the Nigerian Exchange Limited, with transactions totaling N1.67 trillion, surpassing foreign participation. The Domestic and Foreign Portfolio Investment Report for July revealed that domestic transactions accounted for 85% of total equity trades, while foreign portfolio investment stood at N852 billion.
The total value of transactions on the nation's bourse increased significantly from June 2025 to July 2025. Retail transactions increased by 14% to N9 billion, while institutional transactions surged by 23% to N1.3 trillion.
Analysts at Cordros Capital predict that domestic investors will continue to drive transaction value in the near term, supported by an expected decline in fixed income yields and relative stability in the naira. Despite global uncertainties, the NGX is expected to maintain positive momentum in the second half of 2025, with ongoing banking sector capital raises and sustained foreign exchange stability.
