Fiducia boosts SME’s access to supply chain finance

A leading digital supply chain finance platform, Fiducia has reiterated its commitment towards deepening financial inclusion across Nigeria, by targeting high-impact sectors with scalable digital finance solutions.

One of the moves towards achieving this was the hosting of the South-South edition of its Factoring Forum in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, which marks its first engagement in the region.

The event, themed: “Unlocking Growth: The Power of Factoring for Business Expansion,” brought together financial experts, corporate leaders, and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), to explore how supply chain finance (SCF) can unlock liquidity and fuel business growth—particularly in the oil and gas value chain.

The Managing Director/CEO of Fiducia, Imohimi Aig-Imoukhuede, said the event reaffirms the company’s mission to close the financing gap for African businesses.

He said: “Fiducia was built to simplify and democratise access to working capital for SMEs. By digitising the factoring process, we’re improving efficiency, unlocking capital, and building resilience across value chains.”

The Fiducia’s platform, according to the firm, enables vendors and suppliers to get faster access to cash by trading their receivables with financiers, while offering corporate buyers enhanced liquidity, better supplier relationships, and competitive rates.

The Group Head, CBG South-South at Access Bank, Evi Ufuoma Kanu, who opened the forum, stressed its relevance to regional economic development.

“This platform is not only timely but strategic. It opens up real opportunities for SMEs working with large corporate organisatios to scale faster through easier access to finance,” she said.

The Port Harcourt edition was part of Fiducia’s nationwide effort to deepen financial inclusion by targeting high-impact sectors with scalable digital finance solutions.
