Capital Raising & Transaction Execution

Structure the right capital. Execute the transaction with discipline.

NCDF Securities Limited is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Nigeria to operate as an Issuing House. We support businesses, institutions, project sponsors and public-sector entities with capital-raising advisory, debt and equity structuring, private placements, issuing-house services and coordinated transaction execution. We help clients define the capital requirement, test transaction readiness, select an appropriate structure, coordinate professional parties and documentation, and manage the approved transaction process from mandate to close.

The NCDF Securities Model

From capital requirement to executable transaction.

Raising capital is not a single event. It is a coordinated process that aligns issuer readiness, capital structure, commercial terms, documentation, approvals, professional parties, investor engagement, closing and post-transaction obligations.

As the SEC-registered Issuing House within NCDF Group, NCDF Securities Limited provides the capital-markets coordination and offer-execution layer. We assess the proposed mandate, develop the transaction pathway, coordinate the execution workstream and manage the approved market process within our registered function, applicable transaction approvals and executed engagement terms.

Our Market Focus

Mandates built around credible issuers, viable projects and defined capital needs.

We work with clients whose capital requirements can be supported by evidence, governance, commercial logic, an explainable use of proceeds and an executable transaction plan.

Priority transaction themes may include infrastructure and energy; housing and real estate; healthcare and education; agriculture, manufacturing and industrial value chains; and financial services and technology. Sector fit alone does not determine mandate acceptance. Each opportunity is assessed for readiness, governance, cash-flow or value-creation logic, use of proceeds, regulatory requirements and execution feasibility.
