The irony about the 2023 election result is that neither Atiku nor Tinubu secured a significant majority votes from their respective region of origin. Tinubu and Atiku scored less than 55%. Now see Obi’s votes from his region, a whooping 87% from his region! But guess those who are labelling everybody bigot for supporting their own son with just a little above half of the total votes in the election.

PRESS RELEASE
𝐉.𝐏. 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐅𝐆𝐍 𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐄𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐱

Abuja, September 14, 2026 — J.P. Morgan, which manages the world's most widely tracked emerging market bond indices, has announced the inclusion of selected Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN) Bonds in its newly introduced Government Bond Index–Emerging Markets Edge (GBI-EM Edge), a benchmark tracking local-currency government debt across frontier emerging markets.

The inclusion reflects the impact of the government's economic reforms, including the stabilisation of the naira, the clearance of the foreign exchange backlog, and broader improvements in GDP growth and inflation, which have strengthened investor confidence in Nigeria's domestic debt market.

𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚
Nigeria qualified on two key measures: liquidity, with FGN Bonds actively traded under a Two-Way Quote System, and issuance size, with outstanding volumes per tenor well above the USD 250 million minimum required for the GBI-EM Edge. Nigeria's weighting in the index is 7.40%, among the highest of the 26 markets covered and close to J.P. Morgan's 8% maximum country weighting.

This inclusion represents Nigeria's return to a J.P. Morgan benchmark for the first time in over a decade, following its exit from the GBI-EM Global Diversified index in 2015 amid foreign exchange liquidity constraints which the current reform agenda has directly addressed.

𝐀 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭𝐬
FGN Bonds were first included in the GBI-EM in 2012, a milestone that drew significant foreign investment into Nigeria's domestic securities market and reduced the cost of issuance by approximately 200 basis points. It also opened the equities market and banking sector to foreign capital and boosted external reserves.

𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭
The GBI-EM Edge tracks approximately $328 billion in local-currency government debt globally. Nigeria's 7.40% allocation represents roughly $17.47 billion of eligible FGN debt across 16 instruments. Index-tracking funds are expected to adjust their portfolios to reflect Nigeria's weighting, which should channel additional foreign portfolio inflows into the domestic bond market over time.

•  𝒀𝒊𝒆𝒍𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒎��𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏: Increased foreign institutional demand is expected to support bond prices and gradually ease domestic yields, helping to moderate the government's cost of servicing naira-denominated debt.

•  𝑩𝒓𝒐𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒅𝒊𝒕𝒚:
While the index covers mid-to-long-tenor government bonds specifically, improved liquidity in the FGN bond market is expected to have positive knock-on effects across the wider debt market, including Nigerian Treasury Bills, over time.

@ARISEtv @taiwoyedele is actually a genius, if you listen to him objectively, you can't help but like him

I got furious when that news broke out, but then I went to read more about it, it makes perfect sense

It's simply a plan to ensure that PMS price doesn't rise beyond what it is
