Access ARM Pensions has crossed the N4 trillion assets under management (AUM) threshold. The feat has cemented its position as a major force in Nigeria’s pension industry and signalling stronger momentum following the merger of Access Pensions and ARM Pensions.

The milestone marks a sharp rise from less than N3 trillion in AUM at the completion of the merger in October 2024. In under 14 months, the combined entity has added over N1 trillion to its portfolio, reflecting accelerated growth driven by improved governance, deeper investment capabilities and a wider national footprint.

Industry observers say the surge points to growing confidence among contributors, stronger contribution inflows and more effective customer engagement. These gains have been supported by upgraded digital platforms and expanded service channels designed to simplify pension management and improve accessibility for clients across the country.

Commenting on the achievement, Acting Managing Director, Abimbola Sulaiman, said surpassing the N4 trillion mark validates both the merger strategy and the institution’s operating model.

“Crossing the N4 trillion threshold is not just a milestone; it is a strong affirmation of the confidence our clients place in Access ARM Pensions. Since the merger, we have deliberately built an institution with stronger governance, deeper investment expertise, and the scale required to deliver long-term value across economic cycles. This growth reflects disciplined execution and a consistent focus on acting in the best interests of our clients.”

She noted that innovation remains central to the firm’s growth agenda, with sustained investment in technology to enhance service delivery and deepen engagement across all customer touchpoints.

“Innovation will continue to guide how we serve our clients. By leveraging technology, data, and modern service infrastructure, we are simplifying the pension experience and building a more responsive and reliable retirement system. As we continue to grow, our priorities remain unchanged: consistent investment performance, strong risk management, and dependable service that gives our clients confidence in their retirement future.”

Access ARM Pensions currently manages over two million Retirement Savings Accounts, giving it one of the largest contributor bases in the Nigerian pension landscape. The company says it will continue to strengthen its investment processes, improve customer experience and focus on delivering sustainable, long-term retirement outcomes for contributors nationwide, even amid changing economic conditions.
