Cowry Treasurers Limited, a subsidiary of Cowry Asset Management Limited recorded another significant milestone as the Cowry Equity Fund was among Nigeria’s Top 10 Best-Performing Equity Mutual Funds for the first half of 2026.

Delivering an impressive 51.27 percent year-to-date (YTD) return as of June 2026, the fund ranked 6th nationally, reinforcing Cowry’s commitment to delivering strong long-term value for investors despite a dynamic market environment.
