Stanbic IBTC Bank Enabling Pension Contributors' Dream Of Becoming Homeowners

Stanbic IBTC Bank, a subsidiary of Stanbic IBTC Holdings PLC, on the advice of the Central Bank of Nigeria, is one of the banks processing specialized mortgage loans for Pension contributors. The Bank announced that its clients were amongst the first batch of approvals released by the National Pension Commission (PenCom), and it has successfully disbursed the mortgages.

Having commenced the validation process for RSA holders that had shown interest in home loans, Stanbic IBTC was excited to have made the first payout to Mr. Kunle Oyetola and helped him achieve his lifelong dream of becoming a property owner in a short time. This achievement confirmed the Bank's strategic emphasis on enhancing the quality of life for Nigerians and aiding contributors in receiving greater value from their contributions prior to retirement.

Dr. Demola Sogunle, Chief Executive, Stanbic IBTC Holdings said; “Our efforts to ease the housing problem for individuals and families in Nigeria has just begun with this initial step.

The mortgage scheme is equipped with several characteristics, such as customizable terms, competitive interest rates, low financial entry barriers, and flexible repayment options.

Mr. Kunle Oyetola, the pioneer recipient of the equity contribution for a residential mortgage processed through Stanbic IBTC Bank, expressed his enthusiasm and gratitude to Stanbic IBTC Bank. He stated, "I was very excited to learn about the release of the guidelines by PenCom for accessing a portion of my pension for property equity. I quickly got in touch with Stanbic IBTC, and their team was very helpful and put me through the processes required. I was very impressed by the professionalism and industry knowledge displayed by their Personal Wealth team and their Home Loans team. They put me at ease and were able to work with me to overcome all the obstacles encountered being the first time this method was utilized. I am very happy to have my equity via my Retirement Savings Account (RSA) disbursed and I am glad I chose to go with Stanbic IBTC Bank.
