Africa Prudential Plc has launched Sabivest, a digital shareholder and investment management application, as part of efforts to deepen access to investment opportunities and enhance transparency in Nigeria’s capital market.
Unveiled in Lagos, the platform is designed to provide investors with a centralized system for managing shareholdings and tracking portfolio performance across multiple investment products.
Commitment to Innovation
At the launch, the Chairperson of Africa Prudential Plc, Christabel Onyejekwe, said the initiative reflects the company’s commitment to leveraging innovation to improve investor experience and participation.
“Sabivest provides a unified ecosystem that enables individuals and institutions to seamlessly access, monitor and grow diversified financial assets through a single interface,” she said, describing the platform as a significant step in advancing digital transformation within the capital market.
Addressing Structural Challenges
The Managing Director, Catherine Nwosu, noted that the application, which is available for download on both iOS and Android platforms, was developed to address structural challenges that have continued to limit investor efficiency. These challenges include fragmented investment accounts, restricted access to diverse financial instruments, and inadequate visibility into portfolio performance.
According to her, the platform aggregates multiple investment services, offering users real-time insights and control through a centralized dashboard. She added that Sabivest features consolidated portfolio views, performance tracking, asset allocation insights, and electronic dividend management, alongside tools for monitoring, documenting, and recovering unclaimed dividends.
Industry Stakeholders’ Roundtable
The launch also featured a roundtable session themed, “Building Trust and Driving Innovation in Nigeria’s Capital Market,” where stakeholders emphasized the importance of technology-driven solutions in strengthening investor confidence and expanding market participation.
