Norrenberger opens Lagos office to boost presence in Nigeria’s financial capital
Norrenberger, a leading integrated financial services group in Nigeria, has expanded its operational presence in Lagos with the commissioning of a new group office in Ikoyi, reinforcing the financial services firm’s long-term growth strategy and commitment to Nigeria’s commercial capital.
The Lagos office consolidates key operations of the Group’s subsidiaries, providing clients in the state with direct access to its full suite of services. These include investments, trusts, pensions, insurance, infrastructure finance, lending, and halal financial products, positioning the firm closer to the heart of Nigeria’s most active financial market.
Representing Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, at the commissioning ceremony, Abayomi Oluyomi, the commissioner for Finance, described the expansion as a strong endorsement of Lagos’ standing as the country’s financial nerve centre.
Oluyomi said the state government remains focused on building a business-friendly ecosystem that fosters enterprise growth, attracts capital, and strengthens innovation within the financial services sector. He noted that Norrenberger plays a crucial role in deepening financial inclusion, supporting infrastructure development, and contributing to sustainable economic growth at both state and national levels.
For Norrenberger’s board, the new office represents more than a geographic expansion. The development reflects a deliberate, long-term investment in institutional growth and governance, says the Chairman of the board. Alhaji Ibrahim Aliyu Bala.

According to him, “Building a financial group that endures requires more than ambition; it requires physical presence, strong governance, and patient capital. This office reflects our confidence in the Nigerian market and our commitment to building a sustainable African financial institution.’’
Tony Edeh, group managing director and chief executive officer, said the decision to strengthen the Group’s footprint in Lagos aligns with the realities of Nigeria’s financial landscape.
“Lagos is where a significant portion of Nigeria’s financial activity originates and is executed. To simplify wealth creation and serve our clients effectively, we must operate where financial decisions are made daily. This office strengthens our ability to deliver timely, high-quality financial solutions to individuals and institutions.” Edeh said
He added that Lagos State’s ongoing development of the Lagos International Financial Centre, currently in its first phase, is expected to attract investment and enhance the competitiveness of Nigeria’s financial system.
The initiative, he said, will serve as a magnet for both domestic and international capital, while creating jobs, supporting innovation, and driving sustainable economic expansion.
Edeh noted that Norrenberger is well-positioned to participate meaningfully in this evolving financial ecosystem.
The commissioning ceremony drew senior government officials, regulators, and leading figures from Nigeria’s financial and business community, underscoring the significance of the expansion.
With the Ikoyi office now fully operational, Norrenberger said it is reinforcing its long-term commitment to the Lagos market and to delivering integrated financial solutions nationwide.
Norrenberger’s portfolio spans across investments, pensions, insurance, lending, infrastructure finance, trusts, and alternative finance.
The Group’s component companies are licensed and regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), the Nigerian Exchange (NGX), the National Pension Commission (PenCom), and the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM).
