Investment One Financial Services Limited (Investment One), a leading financial services group in Nigeria, today announced the sale of its mutual funds and pension businesses to Guaranty Trust Holding Company Plc (GTCO).

The transaction represents the next chapter in the strategic development of the Investment One Group. It allows the Group to refocus its investment management and investment banking services to its individual and corporate customers, while enabling its retail customers in the pension and mutual fund businesses to take advantage of the network and service platforms of GTCO in the management of their pension and mutual funds.

The Directors and Management of Investment One are certain that the transfer is a step in the right direction for the Group. They expect the transition to be seamless, considering the cultural and operational similarities between the Group and GTCO (their former parent company).
