It is designed to provide finance to SMEs,\u201d the banks stated.<\/p>\n<p>It added, \u201cBOI is in partnership with 25 state governments with a total fund size of over N11bn. Interest rate is between five to 10 per cent per annum. There is a N5bn matching fund partnership between the BOI and Dangote Foundation. Interest rate is five per cent per annum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Executive Officer, Centre for the Promotion of Private Enterprises, Dr. Muda Yusuf, said it was vital for the government and its agencies to continue supporting businesses across the country.<\/p>\n<p>This, he said, was because many businesses in Nigeria, for instance, manufacturers, had continued to grapple with the problems of high cost of logistics, access to foreign exchange, access to raw materials and the impact of excise duty on alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is impacting demand for their products. The high inflationary pressure is also constraining the capital expenditure of many of the manufacturing firms,\u201d Yusuf stated.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cCapacity to expand is being constrained because of the high inflationary situation. These are some of the challenges that are faced by the manufacturers and many other businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Output has declined significantly in many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/07\/27\/afdb-official-nigerian-govt-most-difficult-client\/\">industries<\/a> because of the challenges of accessing raw materials due to the scarcity of foreign exchange. Many players in the economy now resort to the patronage of the parallel market at very prohibitive cost, as very little access exists on the official window.<\/p>\n<p>The sharp depreciation of the exchange rate and the parallel market which is over 300% has endangered the profitability of investments. The capacity to retain employment and the capacity to create new jobs have been greatly endangered because of the foreign exchange crisis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Federal Government has disbursed N1.24tn to 4.21 million enterprises through the Bank of Industry in six years, the latest report on disbursements by the bank showed.
