Nigeria’s pension fund assets surged to N23.26 trillion in February, according to the latest data from the National Pension Commission (PenCom).
This marks a 1.77 percent increase from the N22.86 trillion reported in January 2025, further highlighting the continuous growth and stability of the country’s pension industry.
The growth, while notable on a month-to-month basis, also points to a more significant trend—one of steady, long-term development supported by sound investment strategies.
The most recent figures reveal that the total net asset value (NAV) of the pension fund has experienced a remarkable year-on-year growth of 17.75 percent, rising from N19.75 trillion in February 2024 to N23.26 trillion in February 2025.
In the span of just over a year, Nigeria’s pension assets have grown by N3.51 trillion. This consistent upward trajectory is a testament to the strategic management of the nation’s retirement savings, reflecting both an increase in contributions and a strong return on investments.
Since 2023, the pension fund’s assets have expanded by N4.91 trillion, rising from N18.36 trillion to N23.26 trillion, bolstered by prudent asset allocation and a diversified investment approach.
