Unclaimed Dividends Checker

There's over ₦190 billion in unclaimed dividends sitting in Nigeria's capital market — money that belongs to ordinary investors. Some of it could be yours. This free tool helps you find it in two steps.

How the checker works

Unclaimed dividend amounts are private to each registrar and the SEC — no tool can show your exact balance. What this checker does is get you to the right place fast:

• Step 1 — the SEC portal searches your name across every registrar at once and tells you which companies you hold and who manages them.
• Step 2 — the company lookup takes any of the 149 NGX-listed companies and gives you its registrar, phone number, and a direct link to that registrar's claim/e-dividend page. Three registrars (Coronation, Veritas, Africa Prudential) even let you search by name.

What you'll need to claim

• Your CSCS account number (from your stockbroker, or the CSCS portal at cscs.ng)
• Your BVN and bank account details
• A valid ID and your signature on the registrar's e-dividend mandate form

Unclaimed dividends don't earn interest and can be swept into the SEC's Investor Protection Fund after six years of inactivity — so the earlier you act, the better.
