Wale Odutola has been appointed as the new Group CEO, and Osahon Ogiemudia, new Executive Director of ARM Holding Company, an asset and investment management firm.
The appointments are effective July 2025, and follow the exit of Jumoke Ogundare, who stepped down on June 30, 2025, after three decades with the firm, including 10 years as Group CEO.
Ogundare said, “It has been a privilege to lead ARM. I’m confident Wale and Osahon will drive innovation and uphold our values while exploring new growth paths.”
Odutola, currently the Deputy CEO, brings nearly 30 years of financial services experience. He previously held senior roles at ARM Pension Managers, ARM Securities, and ARM Properties.
He said, “ARM stands for vision, integrity, and long-term value. I am honoured to lead our next chapter and support Nigeria’s economic growth.”
Chairman Deji Alli believes the appointments are a strategic step in renewing ARM’s leadership for a changing economy.
