FCMB Expands Energy Finance Loan to Help Nigerians Access Clean Energy Solutions
First City Monument Bank (FCMB) has increased its energy finance loan, now providing up to N30 million for Nigerian households and small businesses to purchase solar panels, batteries, and inverters.
With a repayment term of up to three years, this initiative aims to ease financial pressures and support businesses’ operational needs.
This loan upgrade aligns with FCMB’s commitment to Nigeria’s 2060 net-zero target, offering affordable clean energy solutions as fuel costs rise.
FCMB’s Managing Director, Yemisi Edun, emphasized, “This loan provides accessible funding for clean energy, offsetting higher fuel costs and aiding sustainable growth.”
George Ogbonnaya, Group Head of Business Banking, added, “Our loan makes clean energy affordable, supporting jobs and environmental sustainability.”
Recognized by the Development Bank of Nigeria for its impact on MSMEs and sustainability, FCMB continues to build a green ecosystem connecting people, capital, and markets across Africa.
