Coronation Registrars links industry recognition to technology leadership, operational excellence, others

Coronation Registrars Limited has secured three major industry awards within eight months of 2025, establishing new benchmarks for innovation and service excellence in Nigeria’s capital markets.

The accolades validate Coronation Registrars’ strategic transformation of Nigeria’s registrar services through pioneering technology solutions, international quality standards, and market-leading thought leadership that addresses decades-old inefficiencies constraining Africa’s capital markets.

The company has been recognised as Best Financial Institution Nigeria 2025 from Global Business and Finance Magazine, Outstanding Registrars Company of the Year from Marketing Edge Awards, and Best Securities Registrar for Investor Services from Gazet Awards.

Nigeria’s capital markets have struggled with systemic inefficiencies—N158 billion in unclaimed dividends, manual processing delays, and disconnected investor services that exclude retail participation from wealth creation.

Coronation Registrars’ comprehensive product suite directly addresses these challenges through technology-enabled solutions that democratise market access whilst enhancing operational efficiency.

ShareholderLive, the company’s flagship digital platform, transforms retail investors into empowered participants by providing real-time portfolio access, seamless corporate action participation, and transparent dividend management.

“Every shareholder, regardless of location or portfolio size, deserves institutional-quality service and access to their investments,” said Oluseyi Owoturo, CEO of Coronation Registrars.

IssuerLive delivers unprecedented market intelligence through live balance sheet data, insider trading monitoring, and on-demand compliance reporting.

Coronation Virtual revolutionises corporate governance by enabling hybrid AGM solutions that expand shareholder participation whilst maintaining governance integrity across banking, oil and gas, telecommunications, and manufacturing sectors.

Coronation Registrars achieved ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Certification, becoming one of Nigeria’s first registrar companies to meet these international standards. This reflects a systematic commitment to operational excellence that attracts both local and global investment confidence.

“Our ISO certification represents more than operational achievement—it’s a public declaration of our commitment to building sustainable competitive advantages through systematic quality management,” states Owoturo. The company’s recent automation of Nigeria’s first fully integrated bond processing workflow exemplifies this commitment to excellence, eliminating manual delays and calculation errors that previously discouraged institutional investment.

As outgoing President of the Institute of Capital Market Registrars (ICMR), Owoturo has championed digital transformation across Nigeria’s capital markets. “Africa’s capital markets are not merely catching up to global standards—they’re leapfrogging traditional limitations through innovative technology adoption,” Owoturo noted.

“These awards validate our strategic focus on technology innovation, operational excellence, and thought leadership,” explains Owoturo.

“More importantly, they signal to institutional investors, listed companies, and regulatory bodies that Coronation Registrars operates at international standards whilst pioneering solutions for African challenges.”

“As prosperity partners, we understand that efficient capital markets are essential for Africa’s sustainable development,” concludes Owoturo. “When entrepreneurs can access capital markets easily, when retail investors participate meaningfully in economic growth, and when institutional capital flows efficiently to productive opportunities, we create foundations for broad-based prosperity.”
