Africa Prudential Plc has launched Sabivest, a digital shareholder and investment management app aimed at simplifying how Nigerians access and manage their investments.
The app, unveiled on April 30, 2026, at a high-level event in Lagos, comes amid rising demand for digital investment solutions and improved access to Nigeria’s capital market.
According to the company, Sabivest enables investors to manage all their shareholdings on a single platform, offering a more seamless and transparent approach to portfolio management.
What Sabivest offers investors
Speaking at the launch, Chairperson of Africa Prudential Plc, Christabel Onyejekwe, described the platform as a major step in delivering a unified investment ecosystem.
“Sabivest was developed to provide individuals and institutions with a unified ecosystem where they can seamlessly access, monitor, and grow diversified financial assets through a single interface. We are extremely proud of this milestone,” she said.
The Managing Director, Catherine Nwosu, explained that the product was built to address long-standing challenges faced by investors, particularly in emerging markets like Nigeria.
These challenges include fragmented investment accounts, limited access to diverse financial instruments, poor portfolio visibility, and difficulties tracking dividends and corporate actions.
“Sabivest aggregates multiple investment products and services, enabling investors to maintain real-time visibility and control over their investments through a centralised dashboard,” Nwosu said.
She added that key features of the app include:
- Consolidated portfolio view
- Real-time performance tracking
- Asset allocation insights
- E-dividend management
- Access to an investment community
The platform also offers dividend tracking, notifications, historical records, and recovery support, helping users manage unpaid or unclaimed dividends more efficiently.
Industry stakeholders weigh in
The launch event also featured a roundtable discussion themed “Building Trust and Driving Innovation in Nigeria’s Capital Market.”
Panelists included Toni Sanni of Emerging Africa Advisory, Kazeem Shomade of United Capital Plc, Ugochi Obi of Nigerian Exchange Limited, Joshua Omewah, and Segun Adebayo of Africa Prudential.
Discussions focused on the role of technology, collaboration, and trust in driving growth and participation in Nigeria’s capital market.
Why this matters
The introduction of Sabivest aligns with a broader shift toward digitisation in Nigeria’s financial services sector, particularly as retail and diaspora investors seek easier and more transparent ways to participate in the market.
Africa Prudential says the app is targeted at retail investors, young professionals, and diaspora Nigerians.
Sabivest is currently available for download on both iOS and Android platforms.
