In Naira terms, this translates to N20 billion free-float market capitalization for companies listed on its Main Board and to ensure that the Bank returns to compliance with its post-listing obligations.

The requirement is in line with the Exchange’s Rules Governing Free Float Requirements, which states that “The Exchange may suspend trading in the Company’s securities if the Company does not achieve the required free float within the stipulated timeframe”.

“The Bank is positioned to achieve and meet the free float requirements within the three years timeframe ending 4 October 2025 given by NGX failing which NGX RegCo may suspend trading in its securities”, Abbey Mortgage Bank said.
