Investing In Nigerian Insurance Stocks: How Good Is It?

Hello everyone,

I've been reading about some insurance companies on the Nigerian Stock Exchange,
and i would like to know if its sensible to invest in the stocks of Nigerian insurance companies.

Any idea would be appreciated, thanks.

i think the insurance sector has great growth potential especially in the light of the consolidation exercise which mirrors that of the banking sector.

I'l like 2 add 2 that as im in d insurance market. You can invest in insurance companies that would or ave recapitalized. Most of them would b owned by banks so its a good investment in the long run (and i mean long run).

Insurance company in Nigeria just rounded up with recapitalization, before this event few of them are the ones in the stock that are doing relatively good, be patient with the recapitalization to upturn their investment.

Investing in insurance stock is a good investment. The price of insurance stocks have been appreciating since recapitalisation exercise and will encourage members to invest now.

Lasaco and mutual benefit are good, what about the newly listed insurance stock Continental Reinsurance Plc. I learnt that it is the first and only reinsurance company listed on Nigeria Stock Exchange.

@excel12

please fix me up. how do i get these insurance shares?  my email addy is bogidan@nigeria.multichoice.co.za.

what really suprised me is the Dangote salt shares that was just released yesterday. my stockbroker told me that the list for the purchase has been concluded yesterday. that was unbelievable! no wonder some people said the rich will continue to be rich.

anyway, i think the stock brokers should wake up! they are too relax for my liking. they need all the customer care they can give to their client.

Dis Guy  ,

you're not too late for Mutual Benefit Assurance. It's dropping now so you can book it with your broker to buy when it falls to 4.5 ( if it falls that low). With a forecast EPS of 35k based on the latest result released it should go further up. Another good one is NEM. let NEM drop to 5 before buying it.

Titilayo,
I see you recommend LASACO. Do you have the Forecast EPS for LASACO? I would like to know it.

Thanks, but the EPS and PE posted on NSE site are Trailing EPS or PE.
Because of the fast growth rate in the insurance industry what we need to determine a comfortable value for LASACO's is the Forcast EPS not the trailing EPS or PE. It can also be calculated from a recent audited or unaudited quaterly result. Do you have any of these? They are not on NSE site.

I do buy them regularly to mix up with my other stock investments mainly for long term objective.
There are still lot of opportunities in insurance stocks as they are still penny stocks.
