Financing Agribusiness
For Growth

We have built strong partnerships across the broad spectrum of economic actors in the agribusiness space to drive our agribusiness financing interventions to micro and last mile levels. We have leveraged strategic partnerships with the CBN and Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) under various industry targeted intervention funding programmes to enhance access to credits to eligible players in the agribusiness and non-oil exports space.

Our activities have continued to be recognized by operators, funding partners and all other actors in the agribusiness space. At the Bankers’ Committee meeting of December 2019, we were awarded 2nd position in Sustainable Agriculture Transactions of the year.
