COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT SCHEMES
An Overview
There were forty six (46) operational & registered Unit Trust
Schemes, three (3) Real Estate Investment Trust Schemes
(REITS), and one (1) Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). The
Unit Trust Schemes and REITS had a combined total Net
Asset Value (NAV) of N 152.2 billion in 2013 compared to
44 operational Unit Trust Schemes and two REITs with a
combined total NAV of N104.6 billion as at December 2012.
This represents an increase of 45.5% which is attributed to
the general growth of the market, authorization of new
Schemes as well as the growth of existing schemes.
The Market Capitalization of the Exchange Traded Fund
was № 277.8 million as at December 2013, a decrease from
N 1.013 billion as at December 2012, this represents a
decline of about 73%. The decrease was attributed to the
fall in the price of Gold (the underlying asset of the ETF) as
well as the substantial redemption of units of the ETF by the
issuer among other factors.
Private Equity, Infrastructure and Venture Capital Funds
also had a combined NAV of N80, 534,009,109.93 for the
period.
