Several complaints are currently trailing a fund/portfolio manager in the capital market, AIMS Asset Management Limited.
According to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), these complaints centre around the private placements of Petdrill Development Company Limited and AIMS Assurance Company Limited.
In a statement signed by management of the capital market regulator, it said it “received various complaints against AIMS Asset Management Limited who solicited and marketed private placements for two private companies namely Petdrill Development Company Limited and Aims Assurance Company Limited.”
SEC noted that while investigating the activities of the registered Capital Market Operator, it “observed that the said private placements and the securities of the private companies were not under the regulatory purview of the commission.”
“In view of the above, the general public is hereby INFORMED, that the Commission does not regulate private placements by private companies and therefore, the respective investors are advised to contact the said companies for their share certificates,” the statement said.

Hello, the company has been deregistered by SEC. You may have to send a mail to SEC via [email protected] and [email protected] to file a complaint
Aims Asset Management Ltd is a big fraud. Except CAC and EFCC can come in, most savers or investors with the company may not recover their investments. The directors of the company are on the run.The company has been run down through fraudulent activities.
If Aims Assets Mgt Ltd is a registered company, automatically it is a legal entity which can be sued. I think the Corporate Affairs Commission should help those of us whose savings are with the company. CAC should tell us the names of the directors of the company, those who registered the company and their contact addresses. Our government should not allow citizens to be ripped off just like that. It is a kind of yahoo-yahoo which the EFCC should pursue with vigour to serve as fetterent to others who derive pleasure in in using 419 companies to steal people hard-earned money. Enough is enough. Aims Asset Management Ltd is a fraud! A cheat and a crook upon whom a curse of the people they stole from will work. When their so called directors and sponsirsvofvthe company begin to suffer debilities, they and their families they will not know that the law of karma is at work. Whatever a man sows he shall reap. They’ve sowed wind they will reap whirlwind in return.
Pls I don’t know how to go about Aims asset management,in which I invested 1million naira for their private placement since 2009.and am yet to here from them,but I have my certificate with me at hand. Pls help me this is my number 08036331400.
Dear Cyril, to the best of my knowledge, Aims Asset Mgt is no more operational
