The Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) has evolved from a stabilisation and savings institution into a national system-builder, leveraging capital, expertise, and partnerships to address structural challenges and expand opportunities for millions of Nigerians.

Created to manage savings for future generations, provide fiscal stabilisation during economic shocks, and invest in domestic infrastructure, NSIA achieved notable milestones in 2025. It earned a perfect score on the Global SWF Governance, Sustainability & Resilience Index and maintained a 9/10 rating on the Linaburg-Maduell Transparency Index, reflecting its robust governance standards.

Financially, NSIA crossed the $3 billion mark in net assets by mid-2025 and recorded a 6% year-on-year rise in Core Total Comprehensive Income, amounting to N202.10 billion in the first half of the year. The authority has sustained a 9.9% compound annual growth rate since inception, even amidst global economic uncertainty.

Beyond financial stability, NSIA expanded its transformative projects:

• Innovation & Technology: The Impact Innovation Fund, in partnership with JICA, supports early-stage Nigerian startups with $28 million in capital. The NSIA Prize for Innovation awarded over $250,000 to promising founders, helping them access mentorship, training, and follow-on funding.
• Healthcare: Through its subsidiary MedServe, NSIA upgraded oncology and nuclear medicine facilities in six federal hospitals, including commissioning three upgraded oncology centres. A $2 million oncology training programme has trained over 186 clinicians to date.
• Energy: Initiatives such as the Renewable Investment Platform for Limitless Energy (RIPLE) and the Distributed Renewable Energy Fund are accelerating Nigeria’s transition to cleaner energy, building on the success of the 10MW Kano Solar Project.
• Agriculture: NSIA’s management of the Presidential Fertiliser Initiative (PFI) grew fertiliser blending plants from four in 2017 to over 80, creating 100,000+ jobs and producing 130 million bags of fertiliser.
• Housing & Finance: The authority advanced affordable housing projects in Kano and helped capitalise the National Credit Guarantee Company (NCGC) with N100 billion, enhancing access to finance for households and SMEs. NSIA also co-developed InfraCredit and the Green Guarantee Company to mobilise capital for infrastructure and climate-aligned projects.

NSIA’s interventions in 2025 created over 245,000 jobs, strengthened Nigeria’s global reputation for transparency and governance, and provided tangible benefits across healthcare, innovation, energy, agriculture, housing, and financial markets.

As 2026 approaches, NSIA is poised to leverage its financial and institutional strength with an expanded portfolio and stronger global partnerships, maintaining its focus on prudent, transparent, and long-term development. For millions of Nigerians, its work translates into improved services, opportunities, and a measurable social impact.
