The CBN required traditional banks to lend 65% of account users’ funds to build the economy. Although banks are fined for not attaining this target, they nevertheless struggle to do so due to lending issues that make loans difficult for consumers and businesses.
Due to these conditions, financial institutions like SeedFi, a data-first digital lending company, were founded to increase economic activity and ensure everyone can access money. Nigeria’s economy benefits from SeedFi’s short- and long-term essential loans to individuals and small enterprises.
