Nigerian Exchange Group said it was named Africa’s Best Exchange at the Euromoney Markets Awards 2026. The award was presented in London on 15 October and the group published its announcement on 19 October.
The exchange operator said its NGX Invest platform facilitated more than ₦2.8 trillion in capital raising during the banking recapitalisation exercise and had over 180 distribution channels by September 2026. It also reported that market capitalisation reached ₦160.73 trillion by 16 October, with year-to-date turnover of ₦7.82 trillion.
These figures and the award description come from NGX Group’s own release. The award recognises its market-infrastructure contribution; the announcement does not independently measure the broader effects on investment or economic growth.
