Regent Microfinance Bank (Regent MFB) has surpassed a major milestone, disbursing over N10 billion in cumulative loans to Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) across Nigeria.
This achievement highlights the bank’s role in closing Nigeria’s credit gap, supporting entrepreneurs, and driving sustainable economic growth. Regent MFB’s extensive loan portfolio—including FMCG business loans, SME loans, asset financing, and micro-business support—continues to provide the capital MSMEs need to strengthen operations, boost productivity, and scale efficiently in competitive markets.
Dr. Idris Olugbesan, Managing Director of Regent MFB, said:
“Surpassing N10 billion in loan disbursements reflects our conviction in SMEs as engines of structural economic growth. Moving into 2026, we aim to broaden financial inclusion, ease liquidity challenges for entrepreneurs, and allocate capital prudently to foster community-level and economy-wide development.”
Chibuzor Uba, Chief Marketing Officer, added:
“At Regent MFB, we don’t just bank, we partner. We’ve helped countless businesses grow, achieve their goals, and contribute to Nigeria’s economic prosperity. Our mission is to continue being a catalyst for progress and success.”
Elijah Oladosu, another CMO, emphasized:
“Financing should never be a barrier. With access to the right loans, growth becomes achievable, and success becomes scalable.”
According to SMEDAN and the National Bureau of Statistics, MSMEs contribute roughly 46–50% of Nigeria’s GDP and provide significant employment. Yet, limited access to credit often restricts their growth. Regent MFB’s lending approach directly addresses this challenge by simplifying access, offering tailored solutions, and integrating financial advisory support.
By reaching the N10 billion mark, Regent MFB reaffirms its commitment to inclusive wealth creation, productivity, and SME resilience, positioning itself not just as a financial institution, but as a trusted partner for entrepreneurs nationwide.
