Following the recapitalization of the Mortgage Banks, ASO Savings and Loans  is now a national mortgage bank with plans to  build up their mortgage loan portfolio and aggressively expand to all states of the federation.

“With our successful recapitalisation, meeting the CBN’s N5 Billion minimum requirement for PMIs, ASO is reinvigorating its three-year plan of expanding its business operations all over the country so that existing and prospective customers can have access to all the unique mortgage opportunities that ASO Savings offers. This development is part of our business vision planned for the company this year. We are extending our presence in key areas like Ibadan, Onitsha, Uyo, Aba, and Enugu, said Mr. Hassan Usman, The Managing Director, Aso Savings and Loans, PLC

“We will be revealing more information about the expansion plans in the coming weeks. However, with our solid capitalisation, asset base and capital projects across the country in partnership with both states and federal governments, we have grown so much in equity and capital base. All these, I am confident, will further validate our positioning statement and brand promise to be the Mortgage Bank of Choice, creating affordable homes for all Nigerians.”
