Enhancing Financial Innovation & Access (EFInA) has launched a $2 million Financial Technology (FinTech) challenge fund for FinTech firms.
The fund is expected to boost the usage of financial services by the low-income population in Nigeria.
EFInA used the opportunity offered by the recent visit of the British Prime Minister Theresa May to Nigeria to introduce the fund.
At a business networking event hosted by the British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Paul Arkwright, last Wednesday, EFInA’s Chair, Segun Akerele, introduced EFInA as a financial sector development organisation that promotes financial inclusion in Nigeria.
