SEC Nigeria launches redesigned website for transparency

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Nigeria has launched a redesigned website to improve transparency, investor safety, and regulatory engagement in the capital market.

Unveiled on Monday, the platform features a mobile-responsive design, simplified navigation, and consolidated resources tailored to investors, operators, and the public.

According to a statement by Director-General Emomotimi Agama, the redesign reflects the Commission’s commitment to modernization and improved service delivery.

“This digital advancement is a significant step in building a more transparent and accessible Commission,” Agama noted, emphasizing its role in strengthening investor engagement.

Key features include intuitive navigation for faster access to regulatory guidelines, mobile optimization, and improved visibility of investor alerts and publications.

Samiya Usman, Executive Commissioner for Corporate Services, explained that the redesign was more than a cosmetic change, describing it as a functional step toward building a fair, efficient, and transparent market.

She noted that the update will ease public access to regulatory information and investor services.

The SEC encouraged stakeholders to explore the platform for market updates, guidelines, and compliance information.

The website relaunch coincides with the Commission’s intensified crackdown on illegal investment promoters in Nigeria.

In 2025, the regulator flagged several entities, including GVEST Global, Pocket Option, Forsman & Bodenfors LTD, Crypto Bridge Exchange, and Sapphire Scents Limited.

These platforms were accused of running Ponzi schemes, unregistered investment services, or fraudulent advisories.

The Commission warned that investors dealing with such operators risk heavy financial losses.

The enforcement drive is anchored on the Investments and Securities Act (ISA) 2025, which expands SEC’s powers to clamp down on Ponzi schemes and hold perpetrators accountable.

“This launch signals our focus on transparency, accessibility, and protection of the investing public,” SEC said, reiterating its stance on integrity and investor confidence
