INNOVATION FUND

One of EFInA’s key objectives is to become an Innovation centre targeting catalytic change across Nigeria’s financial sector. 

The Innovation Fund is a special facility within EFInA that seeks to promote innovation in the development and deployment of financial services and thus expand financial access to the underserved population in Nigeria.  EFInA will share the risk of developing and implementing new innovations by providing a grant subsidy (up to 50%) for new commercial projects. 

Potential organisations that EFInA would be looking to fund include commercial banks looking to downscale, microfinance banks, technology providers, telecommunications operators and payment services providers.

There are two types of grants that EFInA will fund
