MISSION / VISION

The conventional financial institutions have not served the grassroots entrepreneurs who form about 65% of the economically active population. The main Mission/Vision of the promoters are, therefore:

• To develop an institution that would be able to empower people through poverty alleviation, employment creation, and capability building.
• To make financial services accessible to a larger segment of the potentially productive Nigerians which otherwise would have little or no access to financial services.
• To contribute positively to rural transformation.
• To eliminate gender disparity by improving Women’s access to financial services.
