Our Story
From an engineer's discipline.
Transworld Investment & Securities was founded in 1988 by Engr. Robert Okechukwu Ofoegbu — a builder in the truest sense, who brought an engineer's discipline to the financial world: the belief that anything worth building must be built with patience, precision, and respect for its foundations.
He envisioned an institution that would democratise wealth creation — helping people grow their assets steadily, transparently, and with dignity. To him, Transworld was never just a brokerage; it was a vehicle for discipline, knowledge, and trust.
"True success is not only what we build, but how we build it — and who we build it for."Engr. Robert O. Ofoegbu, Founder & Chairman Emeritus
