Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA), the manager of Nigeria’s Sovereign Wealth Fund, has recorded its 10th year of continuous positive earnings in spite of volatility and headwinds across markets.

Grows Net Assets By 10.5% To N1.02trn

A statement made available to The Guardian, showed a total Comprehensive Income of N96 billion in 2022, representing a decline of 34 per cent relative to 147bn in 2021 due largely to strong macroeconomic headwinds. “As we look to the future, NSIA is resolute in its commitment to delivering increased investments in critical sectors of the economy, driving growth across its funds, and attracting third-party capital into Nigeria’s infrastructure sector.

Like other emerging and frontier markets, the Nigerian economy faced multi-dimensional challenges during the year. From surging inflation primarily driven by food prices to declining oil output and weakening currency, the prospect for growth diminished as the year wound down. In 2022, NSIA reached a significant milestone in implementing its infrastructure strategy by delivering key projects. These projects cut across our core sectors of focus and the implementation of specialized federal government initiatives.As of year-end 2022, 72 blending plants have been included in the programme starting from 11 in 2017.

The Future Generations Fund outperformed its sovereign wealth funds peers by 10 per cent on average, with Private Equity being the top-performing sector. Developed Equity, Hedge Funds, and Emerging Long Only Equity posted a decline in the year due to prevailing macroeconomic market conditions.For this SF, the Authority stated that it is largely invested in the U.S.’s sovereign debt instruments and Investment Grade Corporate Credit.
