International Energy Insurance (IEI) Plc
International Energy Insurance Plc — a Norrenberger Financial Group company and Nigeria's first energy-focused insurer — ran a ₦17.5 billion public offer to recapitalise ahead of NAICOM's new minimum capital requirements under the Nigeria Insurance Industry Reform Act 2025. It was the only public offer (the seven other insurers in the recapitalisation pipeline chose rights issues), which made it the retail-accessible one.
