Asset & Resource Management Company Limited, (ARM) in its 21 years of existence has evolved from being an investment management firm into Nigeria’s largest non-bank financial institution, with Ms. Jumoke Ogundare and Mr. Sadiq Mohammed taking over the reins of the Company as Group Chief Executive Officer and Deputy Chief Executive Officer respectively.
Ms. Ogundare and Mr. Mohammed are long-time ARM executives who know the Company, its clients, employees and operations quite well.
Placing these experienced executives into leadership roles underscores the Company’s commitment of realising ambitions which remains the core purpose of the business.
They are supported by an experienced four-man Executive Management Committee with a combined 95 years of service with the Company and over 125 years of industry-related experience.
ARM Group CEO – Ms. Jumoke Ogundare stressed that ARMs success has been hinged on the ability to remain focussed on its essence of realising ambitions; its staff; and, core values.
“Our business success is ensured by the support of our over 2,500 staff. We plan to continuously foster an inclusive, diverse and thriving workplace in the coming years”, she said.
She also stated that ARMs vision was recently revised from being a West-Africa focussed business to an Africa focussed business to reflect its actualisation of its West Africa reach and to signal its foothold in Africa through its acquisition of Mixta Africa.
In the words of Ms Ogundare, “ARM started as a company offering private wealth management services to a niche market of high net worth individuals; twenty one years on, we have evolved into a diversified and integrated asset management company with a focus on providing investment solutions to retail, high networth and institutional investors.
The business we started with over two decades ago is now a subset of one of the several businesses in the ARM Group”, she concluded.
