Stanbic IBTC Pension Managers, a subsidiary of Stanbic IBTC Holdings,
has successfully concluded its 2026 Pre-Retirement Seminar series,
reaching about 3,714 pre-retirees across Lagos, Akure, Port Harcourt,
Abuja, and Kano.
Spanning five of Nigeria’s most economically significant cities, the
annual series has firmly established itself as one of the most impactful
and far-reaching retirement education platforms in the country’s
financial services industry.
The programme was crafted to give attendees a thorough and practical
understanding of what it truly means to retire well in today’s
Nigeria. One of the most anticipated elements of this year’s edition
was a live interview panel session that brought together representatives
from Stanbic IBTC’s subsidiaries speaking directly to the financial
realities facing pre-retirees. The panel addressed key market
intelligence questions on pension management, income planning, and life
after work. The open format encouraged substantive exchanges that helped
participants gain clarity on complex decisions and understand the full
range of options available to them as they transition out of active
employment.

A dedicated health talk rounded out the core sessions, addressing a
dimension of retirement planning that is often overlooked: the critical
role of physical wellbeing in sustaining a fulfilling post-work life.
Throughout the day, carefully placed interludes highlighted the breadth
of Stanbic IBTC’s product and service offerings; ensuring attendees
left with both the knowledge and the resources to take meaningful steps
towards securing their retirement.
Olumide Oyetan, Chief Executive, Stanbic IBTC Pension Managers, said:
“This seminar series reflects our broader definition of what
financial services should deliver. Success is not just measured by the
assets we manage, but by the quality of life our clients are able to
live in retirement. The strong engagement across all five cities
highlights a growing appetite among Nigerians to take ownership of their
retirement journey.
Olumide further added, “For many, years of pension contributions have
not always translated into clear understanding of their future. These
seminars are designed to address that gap in a direct and practical way
– ensuring every client leaves with clarity on their current position,
available options, and the steps to take next. This initiative is a
clear expression of our commitment to our clients, and one we will
continue to invest in, because they deserve nothing less.”
With retirement planning awareness still developing across Nigeria’s
workforce, the Pre-Retirement Seminar is a reaffirmation of Stanbic IBTC
Pension Managers’ commitment to ensuring that no client approaches
retirement without the knowledge, tools, and confidence to navigate it
well.
