NGX adds WhatsApp route for public-offer subscriptions

Nigerian Exchange Group has added a WhatsApp subscription route to NGX Invest, giving investors another way to view and apply for eligible public offers, BusinessDay reports.

Investors can start the process by messaging “Invest” to NGX Invest’s official WhatsApp account, then follow prompts to view offers and select a stockbroker. Applications continue to be processed through the chosen broker, according to the report.

The new route adds to NGX Invest’s distribution network of more than 100 channels, including stockbrokers, banks, fintechs, mobile operators and other financial institutions connected through APIs.

NGX says subscriptions are handled through its regulated platform. The report advises investors to use only the official NGX Invest account and never share passwords, PINs or one-time codes. It does not identify a particular public offer or closing date.
