PFAs curb equity exposure in search of low-risk assets

Pension Fund Administrators (PFAs) controlling in excess of N15 trillion in assets under management (AUM) have reduced their allocations to Nigeria’s equities in search for less risky investments.

According to industry analysts, investment of pension funds continues to shift with more allocation going to federal government bonds and securities as against equities and other asset classes, underscoring challenges and volatility in the investment market.
