Atiat Launches State-of-the-art Head Office in Lagos, Rolls Out New Growth Agenda

What could be best described a new chapter has opened for Nigeria’s financial services landscape, as Atiat Limited formally commissioned its ultra-modern head office in Victoria Island, Lagos, while also unveiling an ambitious growth plan tagged Atiat 3.0.

The unveiling, which held on Thursday, September 18, attracted government officials, industry players, partners, and invited guests, who witnessed the rebirth of a company that has grown from an automotive leasing and finance pioneer into a fully-fledged financial services ecosystem. The new strategy also proudly positions Atiat as more than a leasing firm, but as an integrated hub offering finance, insurance, technology, and mobility solutions under one umbrella.

This reporter gathered that Atiat company’s ecosystem is structured into three core groups and segments, comprising an automotive and mobility arm that oversees rentals, fleet management, sales, and financing; a financial services group that covers insurance brokerage, lending, and structured products; and lastly a technology arm focused on IT support, software development, and digital integration. It was further gathered that each of these segment will feed into the other, enabling cross-pollination of data and expertise to deliver greater value to clients.

Speaking at the opening, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Atiat Limited, Mr. Kanayo Eni-Ikeh, described the new head office as the “nerve centre” of the company’s future, designed to foster collaboration and accelerate innovation. He explained that the launch of Atiat 3.0 reflects the company’s determination to scale beyond its traditional space into a multi-sector platform capable of serving businesses and households across Nigeria and West Africa.

According to him, Nigeria’s youthful population and expanding economy present opportunities that demand bold thinking. He noted that despite the country’s position as Africa’s largest economy, millions remain excluded from financial services, while insurance penetration is still abysmally low. The new Atiat model, he said, was crafted to close such gaps by providing a one-stop platform where customers can access mobility services, loans, structured finance, insurance, and technology-driven solutions seamlessly.

While stressing that the new headquarters was deliberately designed to encourage transparency, teamwork, and customer-centric service, Mr. Eni-Ikeh maintained that the building, located at 161C Raufu Taylor Close, off Idejo Street, Victoria Island, represents more than physical expansion but a statement of intent.

“We set out to build much more than a new office,” he explained, stressing that “This is the home of Atiat 3.0, where technology, talent, and vision converge to deliver growth for our clients and prosperity for the economy.”

Looking to the future, Mr. Eni-Ikeh revealed that Atiat intends to scale its operations across Nigeria and into West Africa. He also envisioned a future where every entrepreneur, family, or individual, whether in Lagos, Ibadan, or Kano, can access financing, acquire technology to automate operations, obtain logistics support, and insure their businesses, all through a single trusted relationship with Atiat.

On his own part, the Chairman of Atiat Limited, Mr. Obinna Ufudo, described the new office as a symbol of ambition and resilience. He said the company was building not just another financial services provider but an institution positioned to stand the test of time.

According to him, Atiat is creating a connected ecosystem that empowers Nigerian businesses and individuals with insurance, lending, technology, and mobility solutions in one place. He further reaffirmed the Board’s commitment to positioning the company as a trusted partner for growth and success in Nigeria’s evolving economy.

Contributing, the Executive Director of Business Development, Ms. Obiageli Ejiofor, highlighted the practical benefits of the integrated approach, explaining that the new model would allow Atiat to leverage expertise and data across its portfolio for the benefit of customers. She noted that cross-pollination of services, from credit scoring to product customisation, would create new value and unlock opportunities for individuals and businesses alike.

In their separate reactions, some witnesses and participants at the event described the feat as a great milestone for both Atiat and Nigeria’s financial sector, while also expressing optimism that the new headquarters is not an endpoint but the launchpad for greater ambition anchored on innovation, integration, and impact.

Some of the guests that attended the event include Mr. Bode Olanipekun (SAN), Managing Partner, Wole Olanipekun & Co.; Engr. Adeoye Fadeyibi, Independent Non-Executive Director, Atiat Ltd.; Mr. Kanayo Eni-Ikeh, MD/CEO, Atiat Ltd.; Mr. Ayo Aderibigbe, Chairman, Baines Credit MFB; Mr. Olatunde Busari (SAN), Chairman,VFD Group Plc.

Which one is Atiat again, is it a profitable venture company, or another means of spending money without adding significant value, as valueless as banks of nowadays.

This is owned by igbo. Can't they do this in the east instead of Lagos.

It would cost a lot more for Nairaland to acquire the server space to host videos. In 2025, the smart move is exactly what they're doing.

Alright... I felt having it's own video archive will make more sense especially for future reference purposes. YouTube is taking away lots of the traffic nairaland should get in terms of videos and alot of us will rather not open the video at all since its domiciled on an external site.
