The Stanbic IBTC Guaranteed Investment Fund is showing consistent weekly performance, with its most recent Week-to-Date (WTD) yield holding steady at 0.22% for four consecutive weeks. That figure sits above the median WTD yield of 0.16% across all Fixed Income / Bond Funds, placing this fund in a stronger position than more than half of its peers in the category. Its Net Asset Value (NAV) has also been climbing, rising from ₦5.54B on 11 June 2026 to ₦5.67B by 3 July 2026, a sign that more money is either entering the fund or the value of its holdings is growing. Among 42 funds in the Fixed Income / Bond Funds category, it ranks #10, and sits at #87 of 222 across all fund types tracked.
On a broader timeline, the fund has delivered a Year-to-Date (YTD) yield of 1.94% so far in 2026, which reflects the total return generated from the start of the year to the most recent data point. The fund serves 12,964 unitholders, meaning investors who have purchased units in it, making it a reasonably well-subscribed option within its category. The early weeks of June showed a brief dip in NAV to ₦5.54B, but the recovery to ₦5.67B over the following weeks suggests that any short-term softness was temporary. The fund's guaranteed nature, meaning it is structured to protect the original amount invested, adds a layer of stability that may appeal to cautious investors who prioritise predictability over chasing higher but uncertain returns.
Key insight: The fund has held its WTD yield at 0.22% for four straight weeks, consistently beating the category median of 0.16%, while its NAV has grown by over ₦130M in a month, signalling steady and stable momentum.
