In order to promote sustainable development in Nigeria and throughout the African continent, Access Bank has reinforced its Development Banking Desk.
The Development Banking Desk is a dedicated desk at Access Bank with the sole purpose of offering financial support to non-profit organizations that strategically carry out projects and initiatives aimed at social progress, impact, and economic development. These organizations include international non-governmental organizations, non-governmental organizations, bilateral and multilateral institutions, donor agencies, and embassies, among others.
According to a statement, this initiative aligns with the bank's vision of becoming the most reputable African bank in the world, solidifying its position as a leading development finance provider and a partner to non-profit organizations and institutions on the continent, and promoting positive change, heralding development, and leaving a lasting impact on the financial, business, community, organizations, and industry it serves.
Hadiza Ambursa, the Executive Director of Access Bank's Commercial Bank Division, expressed excitement about the updated Development Desk and its possible influence on Nigeria's economic environment.
She said, “Our vision is to drive economic empowerment and financial inclusion by providing specialised financial products and services to businesses, NGOs and institutions. Through this initiative, we aim to support and nurture the growth of these entities, fostering a robust entrepreneurial ecosystem in Nigeria and beyond.”
Head, Development Banking Desk, Ambur Sule, said, “The Development Desk serves as a conduit for global funds and resources, bolstering the bank’s influence in the African region and fortifying Nigeria’s position on the international development stage.”
“As we move toward a more interconnected world, Access Bank’s role as a development finance leader and partner becomes increasingly vital. Our collaborations with esteemed NGOs and Institutions as a partner are instrumental in driving inclusive growth, deepening financial inclusion, reducing poverty, and boosting infrastructure development in Nigeria.”
