It is about making it easier for investors outside the country to participate. That is the opportunity Daba Finance and Coronation are targeting with a new partnership designed to connect global investors with Nigerian capital-market products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The partnership comes as Nigeria\u2019s equities market records a powerful rally. The NGX All-Share Index gained 57% in the first seven months of 2026, while total market capitalisation increased by about \u20a658.9 trillion to \u20a6158.3 trillion. Yet much of that growth has been driven by domestic investors, rather than foreign capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/techcabal.com\/2026\/09\/03\/daba-and-coronation-want-to-bring-global-investors-in\/\">That imbalance is central to the new arrangement.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daba Finance, a digital investment platform focused on African markets, is partnering with Coronation Securities and Coronation Asset Management to give eligible investors globally digital access to Nigerian capital-market opportunities. Under the structure, Daba serves as Coronation\u2019s corporate client through a trust arrangement, while Coronation\u2019s locally regulated businesses provide the underlying investment services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The idea is to tackle a problem that has long limited international participation in African markets: access is often complicated by unfamiliar market structures, limited information and cumbersome investment processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daba wants to simplify that journey. Eligible users can access Nigerian investment products through its platform, with digital onboarding, multi-currency funding, trade placement and investment reporting. The platform will also feature Nigerian market research and analysis supplied through Coronation\u2019s expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Investor education is another important part of the partnership. Daba Academy and Coronation Investment Academy will provide courses and webinars designed to help investors understand Nigerian securities, market institutions, opportunities and risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This matters because Nigeria\u2019s strong market performance is happening alongside relatively low foreign participation. Foreign investors accounted for only 12.1% of NGX transaction value as of June 2026, down from 27.1% a year earlier. Coronation has argued that stronger domestic participation provides a healthier foundation, but renewed international interest could further deepen the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Daba, the partnership is an opportunity to turn global interest in African markets into actual investment activity. The company says it already serves more than 250,000 customers worldwide, giving it a potential international audience for Nigerian investment products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Coronation, meanwhile, the partnership extends its market knowledge and investment capabilities to investors beyond Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bigger goal is therefore not simply to attract more foreign money. It is to make Nigeria more visible, understandable and accessible to global investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If Nigeria can sustain its market reforms, improve macroeconomic stability and maintain investor confidence, easier digital access could help transform international interest into deeper participation. Daba and Coronation are betting that the next phase of Nigeria\u2019s capital-market growth will require not only stronger performance at home, but also a more direct connection to investors around the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nigeria\u2019s capital market is having a standout year, but the latest push is not simply about making the market bigger.
