When Will The Sky Shelter Fund Be Listed On The NSE?

I'd like to know if the skye shelter fund is likely to be listed on the NSE this year.
Easimoni & co. over to  you

Plz explain in detail the meaning of the skye shelter fund

sky shelter fund is controlled by sky bank, they get public fund as an equity, invest it in property development project which makes you an equity owner, they will be distributing the annual profits and loss among their investors. i think its is a good idea because if well handled it will never reduce value.  it is just like the normal share i.e. the usual public offer, the only difference is that they will invest it in property thing and it is going to be managed by experts.

good luck 

I 'll advice you wait for fidelity !

@ Tolababe

Please note, that the Skye Shelter offer closed last month. Next time there is an IPO, just go to any branch of the bank, complete a form, submit with your payment and get your receipt. It is as simple as that.

Unfortunately, you have misssed the boat for Skye Shelter Fund but they will offer a fresh batch of shares early next year.

@Tola

As the ongoing bid by Skye Bank Plc to raise N2 billion for its Skye Shelter Fund enters its fourth week, the fund managers last weekend, stressed that it would be listed for trading on the Nigerian Stock Exchange within three months of its opening. Subscribers to the fund, the first real estate investment trust in the country, according to Mr. Timothy Oguntayo, a deputy general manager and head, investment banking of Skye Bank, would not have to wake as long as public offerings in the banking sub-sector. The desire to list the entire 20 million units of Skye Shelter Fund at N100 each, according to him, is to avail investors an exit window as time goes on. "We expect this offer to be wrapped up in three months from the date of opening of the offer (July 23, 2007), to distribution of certificates to unit holders of the fund," he assured. Yemi Gbenro, an assistant general manager with the bank explained that: "you are free to go to the (floor of the) Nigerian Stock Exchange to (sell your units and) get your money back.

The price is also market determined. The beauty of this fund is that up to 80 per cent of the returns can be distributed to unit holders." Both officials also assured of robust returns on investment for subscribers because of the fund manager’s experience in the mortgage industry, where it has played a major role in estates development.

The bank, before now, they explained further, has financed projected across the country, even as most of the houses have been taken up by high net worth individuals, thereby sign-posting huge interest in real estate. "There is an underlying capital appreciation, as you can see what your found is used to finance physically," Oguntayo added, just as Gbenro explained that the units are trade-able on the NSE like regular equities.

Oguntayo hinted that as a result of the fund manager’s strides in the real estates sector, the fund manager and Shelter Afrique, a Kenya based organization have entered into a multi-million facility to enable individuals purchase properties at an interest rate between 10 and 20 per cent. Also, the International Finance Corporation the private sector arm of the World Bank is currently engaged in a dialogue with the Federal Government on how to harmonise land rules and remove obnoxious portion of the Land Use Act. The IFC is also discussing with governments of various States where land is an issue, the duo added, while real estate developers are being enjoined to use good building materials and skilled man-power, among others.

The Corporation is also engaging financial institutions on the need to harmonise the various requirements for mortgage loans for the benefit of the end users. The N2 billion to be raised from the ongoing offer is the first tranche. There are plans by the promoters to return for the second tranche of N3 billion or more at the beginning of next year.
