Nigeria’s total pension assets fell by 1.99% in June 2026, dropping to N30.70 trillion from N31.32 trillion in May. According to data from the National Pension Commission, the decline was largely driven by a pullback in domestic equities and lower holdings across several fixed-income asset classes. Despite the monthly contraction, assets remained 24.64% higher than the previous year, with new Retirement Savings Account registrations continuing to grow. Pension fund managers also increased liquidity buffers, evidenced by a significant 34% monthly rise in cash holdings.
