Preator:
You do realize that you should be more afraid of UBA collapsing? Stanbic doesn't hold your funds per SEC rules. The money is with UBA as custodian. And neither stanbic bank nor the group will cover the loss should UBA go under.
yes.. UBA as custodian and trustee as well.

Though, I don't fully agree with the bolded.


A Govt(customer)employs a contractor(Stanbic) and the contractor sublets to a sub-contractor(UBA).
If the subcontractor defaults, The contractor is still responsible for any default to the Govt.

I suppose this is how it works.
UBA invests the money as you say, but at the direction of Stanbic and Stanbic directs the particular investment and teach ratio the money should be split.
Stanbic also initiates withdrawals on behalf of clients by contacting UBA-trustees who confirms and crosschecks clients details and amount. Then directs UBA-custodians to withdraw required amount.
In all Stanbic is the Asset Manager and responsible for the movement of the funds and performance of the funds despite not being the custodian.
They perform constant monitoring of the fund.


So in a case of eventualities the parent company would have to bail Stanbic out on behalf of clients. to keep their name and brand at least.

Any issue with UBA would be sorted in-house amongst themselves after setting customers.

The customers will have nothing to do with UBA.
All they know is Stanbic Mmf.

This is purely hypothetical anyway since most of the money with UBA also are either already used to purchase government securities or placement with other banks. So lots of risk points along the line.

If you really want to rely on stanbic strength, find a asset manager that use them as custodian. Then you be sure they will "never" go under.

Thats how the markets works.
OK.. Thanks for the input and adding more context to it.

Diversification is highly advisable. It's no brainer in any venture.

But my point still remains:
For now:

You'all can Diversify to other firms for other reasons; rate, customer service, app simplicity, tailored efficiency,etc. It's all good, and highly advisable. Not against it.

But Diversify-INTO Stanbic as a safety net against future bankruptcy of firms in the near term (if at all) NOT away from Stanbic.

Diversify into Stanbic specifically for robust, longevity, economic Shock absorber, capital safety, safety-net against bankruptcy in your lifetime. Their parent company is still the No. 1 financial firm in Africa and over 150yrs Old and so Stanbic Mmf have a huge backup shield.



I don't advice OPAY for bulk holdings as indirectly insinuated.
The more regulated a firm is, the safer your assets as a customer.
Your choice anyway.



I am writing for over 50+ individuals coming to the thread in future to make informed decision.
(Not trying to convince anyone in particular).

I never mentioned anything about bankruptcy, I was going on about the deplorable state of their services in recent time, which you also agreed with.

Do i think it’s a solid business, yes but at your bolded is a lie, nothing hate more than lies. In this case it seem your lie is a product of your ignorance. There is nothing “Too Big To Fail”. Bigger and better companies than Stanbic IBTc in 1st world countries have go bankrupt if you don’t know undecided

No company is immortal. Standard Oil was broken up by the law; the East India Company (once the most powerful entity on Earth) was dissolved by the British Crown. While the "Big Tech" giants of today seem untouchable, history suggests that eventually, every giant either evolves, gets broken up, or fades away.

*******************************

If you are reading diverse your funds between atleast 3 or 4 MMF operators.
OK.. I get your point on services. they need to improve.


The bankruptcy part wasn't for you.
I might have exaggerated on it a bit. Nothing is too big to fail.(Nokia, Blackberry, intercontinental, union bank, etc comes to mind)

But at the moment they've got the benefit of doubt.theyve still got a robost group
(Stanbic capital is leading the listing of Dangote Refinery on NGX)

but I suppose those concerned got my drift with respect to other asset entities.

Chimex38 i didn’t even know Stanbic gave birth to Standard chartered, another solid bank. Nawa, no wonder they still collaborate on some things like wallet, etc.

If you notice, both standard chartered and Stanbic are miles ahead of any purely Nigerian owned bank in terms of operational efficiency. Infact they are the only 2 banks whose app can rival that of fintechs. The fintechs are scared of them

Stanchart does MMF too but those ones no send Nigerian Money Market. You need to be a finance guru to understand their MMF lol
@Bolded
Not necessarily Stanbic.

Rather Standard Bank SouthAfrica gave birth to both Standard Chartered Bank UK(an independent entity ) and
Stanbic Nigeria
(subsidiary of standard bank)

Standard Chartered is almost exclusively reserved for elites. They do it without apology.

At the bolded. It is either you are a marketer or you are not living on earth with the rest of us undecided

This week that just passed using Stanbic bank was a nation wide struggle. Even functions for other arms of their business wasn’t working sub-optimal or not even working at all.

I have been using Stanbic services for over 10 years now and can tell you confidently that in recent times their service are deteriorating faster than a rotten tomatoes
Yes.. They have issues on that.
They even issued SMS to that effect.
There services are beginning to the poor and others are competing favourably in some aspects.

But let nobody put Stanbic and Bankruptcy in the same sentence.
The other asset managers would first go bankrupt in the hierarchy of things.

Services are poor, but your funds are HIGHLY SECURED.
No matter the billions anyone may have, I don't think it makes up to 1% of what they hold.

They lack financial wisdom, they don't know that even stanbic/GTB and others are not immune to bankruptcy but Nigeria financial monitoring policies is an eagle eye on our financial system in Nigeria,that was how they said opay will collapse till today opay and other fintechs are even doing better 🤣 you guy should stop all this your myopic reasoning .Nigeria is moving forward ✌🏾🤑🤑
Standard bank group SouthAfrica is the No1 financial institution in Africa by a large margin..
Stanbic Bank and asset arm are just subsidiaries.

They may fall down the pecking order in few years but not going bankrupt anytime soon.
I still doubt they will drop from No1 position in the next 5-10yrs.

They gave birth to the popular Standard Chartered bank of UK.
Yes, the same Big Boyz bank that sponsors Liverpool.

They ain't bankrupting anytime soon or later.

That is logical nah.

I had some funds sitting with Morgan for more than two months because I was busy at the time. That money did not generate a single kobo in interest, whereas my FCMB account would have earned over 1% interest by the end of the month.
Though they could argue that unlike banks, they do not use your money for business.
It probably just sits there.
Or do they?

Lol, custody of what? Have you not been hearing all the discussions about CSCS domiciling your shares? The only thing they actually hold for you is the cash in your account waiting to be deployed, or the proceeds from your sales. Honestly, they should even be paying you interest, since that money generates interest for them.
Hmmm. on point

Mankind2024:
I heard a beer parlour rumour yesterday while in Kuje that Nigerian stockbrokers are proposing a custody fee for holding clients' assets on their platforms.
May this never be approved by the SEC!
It would add yet another layer of costs for retail investors already dealing with brokerage commissions, NGX/CSCS/SEC fees, stamp duty, etc.
Most reputable brokers in Nigeria don't currently charge ongoing custody or account maintenance fees for standard retail accounts. Introducing this could discourage long-term holding and hurt market participation.
Anyone else hearing this, or is it just talk?
Ahh..
Never heard Ooo.
Na cuz SEC force them to undergo capitalization?

They’ve paid out 60%, and they have expansion plans. And unlike Bua and Dangcem they don’t like to take on debt, so it will be funded by internal cash flows
Well, some see stock as a business and as the company itself.

Some others see it as a derivative; independent of the company or business.

The way some people think genuinely surprises me. With all the bashing of Ellah, some were saying it would drop to ₦3 or even ₦1, haba. A few comments were clearly coming from a place of hate and bile, without any attempt to hide it. Statements like “Ellah Lake holders will be executed”, lol , are completely unnecessary.

We really need to calm down. There are many ways to determine value; it doesn’t have to be only your method. Yes, the capital raise failed, okay. That’s not the end of the company, nor does it automatically mean the end of their proposed acquisition.

It almost feels like some people would physically drag Ellah down if they had the power, just to prove they were right.

For the record, I don’t own a single share of Ellah. I just don’t see it as a bad bet yet. They still have possible paths to win.

Thanks for reading.

Mercy let's have your insurance cheap stock picks, relative to eps, future prospects, capital appreciation etc... Penny stocks
For insurance:
Aside capitalization momentum which are half way priced in..
any other upside is subject to Market makers discretion.

Unless you can spot insurance with aggressive market makers.


Use your Ellah loot and enter NAHCO or OKOMU or more stable growth TIP(since you sem5 less risk averse)
or any consumer- goods stock of your choice inbetween.

And if price appreciation collapses a bit like incase of NAHCO, you are sure of dividend this year and dividend growth again next year..
(election campaign and travel matters)

At least get returns on the money (guaranteed dividend) to shore up for time-value lost in Ellah and possibly capital appreciation before playing another risky probability game with same capital.

You're exactly right.
But let NGX have more robust regulations to avoid unnecessary issues.

From my days of programming backend engineering, we think of as many crazy scenarios as possible and make our logic accommodate them. That's how to build robust stable and sophisticated systems.

But even the most robust systems still have some weird, crazy, edge cases unhandled, what do you do then, simple, just push a new patch and have a new release/version.

If you had an app that's never been updated in the past 6 years, you can imagine how hectic your user experience would be.

So are these old NGX rules becoming, they need a little bit of refinement.

The market has changed significantly from what it was in 2019.


As a matter of fact, since the demutualization that gave birth to a stand alone Regco, the said company, whose core job is regulation has not even come up with a single new rule, not even an amendment to an old rule, yet the market keeps changing.

I put the larger blame on the NGX in this situation.
NGX know they have a fault.
They literally said it indirectly in the video that the float Issue has caused them bad names. So they will begin with Zichis this new year 2026 to enforce it from the get-go for any new company..



NGX still have lingering issues with Prestige, UPDC, etc...long after listing.

It may look like a double standard thing. But it's more like pushing forward to avoid such issues from any listed company from 2026.
