Skymark Partners Limited has deepened its presence in Nigeria’s short-term debt market with the listing of three new commercial paper (CP) issuances worth a combined N6.02 billion on the FMDQ Securities Exchange.
The issuances were approved under the company’s N30billion Commercial Paper Issuance Programme, marking another milestone for the private investment firm as it expands its footprint in the fixed-income market.
The total N6.02 billion issuance is distributed across three distinct series, comprising N0.84 billion for Series 51, N0.38 billion for Series 52, and the largest portion of N4.80 billion for Series 53.
The successful quotation of these notes on the FMDQ platform provides Skymark Partners with a transparent and efficient avenue to raise short-term finance to fund its working capital requirements and strategic investment activities.
Skymark Partners, a Lagos-based principal investment company with interests across financial services, technology, and real estate, has remained a consistent player in the CP market. This latest activity follows a track record of successful redemptions and oversubscribed issuances, often supported by key financial institutions such as United Capital Plc, UCML Capital, AIICO Capital, and United Capital.
The January 2026 admission comes at a time when corporate entities are increasingly looking toward the debt markets to bypass the higher costs of traditional bank lending. Skymark’s ability to reach its 53rd series highlights a disciplined approach to debt management and a high level of trust from institutional investors.
With this new liquidity, Skymark Partners is expected to further its mission of creating wealth in Nigeria’s critical growth sectors.
