For its significant contribution and transforming the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises(MSME) landscape in Nigeria, Enhancing Financial Innovation and Access (EFInA) has been honoured by Nairametrics Financial Advocates and Economic Forum Media at its 2024 MSME Finance Awards ceremony.

The award, the organisers said, was a testament to EFInA’s impactful work and inspires hope for a more inclusive financial future.

According to them, EFInA’s unwavering commitment to fostering an inclusive financial market is evident in its proactive approach to addressing the critical challenges excluded segments, including MSMEs, face with access to formal financial services.

It said the financial innovator moved from providing credible market information on various pressing themes about the Nigerian financial services sector, including how to better serve the MSME market specifically, to organising Ideathons and Hackathons that lead to the development of innovative ideas and solutions that address barriers affecting access to finance.
