These additional shares came from a mix of Rights Issues, Private Placements, and a Public Offer, as reported in the NGX Daily Official List. The listings by the three companies reflect the ongoing trend of capital raising and expansion in the Nigerian capital market. Out of the 8 billion shares, Guinea Insurance and Regency Alliance contributed the majority by volume, while The Initiates had the largest transaction by offer-price value. The new listings come in response to the revised minimum capital thresholds set by the Nigerian Insurance Industry Reform Act 2025, which set life insurers' capital requirements at N10 billion and non-life insurers at N15 billion.",
