Stanbic IBTC Stockbrokers Limited was incorporated in 1986 and licensed in 1987 by the Nigerian Exchange. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Stanbic IBTC Holdings PLC and a member of the Standard Bank Group, set up to provide stockbroking services to local and foreign investors in Nigeria's capital market.
The firm is registered with Nigeria's SEC as a Broker/Dealer and Market Maker, file number 341, and is a member of the Nigerian Exchange (NGX). It held an 11.26 percent share of the value of shares traded on the NGX in 2024, and also acts as the Government Stockbroker for Federal Government of Nigeria securities in the retail debt market. It won several 2024 and 2025 awards, including NGX Broker of the Year and Brokerage Firm of the Year in Nigeria.
Stanbic IBTC Stockbrokers is not a forex or CFD broker. Clients trade equities, bonds, ETFs, mutual funds, and OTC securities through its own online trading platform, so figures like spreads and leverage do not apply here.
