Why we invest

To Build a Savings Base for the Nigerian People

NSIA invests with the aim of building wealth and providing a sound financial foundation on which the Federation can formulate ambitious development and diversification objectives. NSIA serves to invest the savings gained on the difference between the budgeted and actual market prices for sale of oil to earn returns that would benefit future generations of Nigerians.

To Enhance the Development of Nigerian Infrastructure
Agriculture, healthcare, motorways, power and renewable energy, gas industrialisation and financial markets infrastructure are some of the high priority areas of focus for NSIA. We invest to stimulate sustainable economic growth, enable industrialisation, attract investment capital, and facilitate policy changes across these key sectors. These catalytic sectors each have the potential to accelerate Nigeria’s economy transformation and fuel the nation’s emergence as the preferred investment destination in the Sub-Saharan Africa.
To Provide Stabilisation Support in Times of Economic Stress
NSIA invests to help protect Nigeria’s economy from external shocks. To perform this role effectively, we invest in assets that enable capital preservation and modest returns. Our goal in managing the stabilisation fund is to provide a safety net against budgetary deficits brought about by drops in oil prices below budgetary benchmark as well as other budgetary constraints. We convert revenue generated from sale of crude oil into income that can be used to stabilise fiscal budgets over commodity cycles. We serve to reduce the effects of volatile revenues from oil on the government and economy of Nigeria.
