A-town: On the contrary I think it's worth debating. The banks are the mainstay of the economy, and everybody should be concerned about what they are doing. We might all learn a few things, if professional and sound opinions are made, rather than passionate angry statements. biina: Well. . . not entirely correct. Banks of late have been extending credit aggressively to the consumer SME markets (LPO financing), and also financing high-value projects in Nigeria. The airport concession in Lagos ($750m), Lekki Expressway concession and the Lagos light-rail project (over $1bn), even MTN and Zain had in the last few years post-consolidation raised structured financing to the tune of $1.5bn (Vmobile) and $2.5bn (MTN). Even Dangote I think raised about $200m to finance some part of his cement projects. So the banks are indeed doing to some extent what they should be doing. I don't expect to see another failed-bank rash like the ones in '94. Those were raw Ponzi schemes, or SPVs set up for the sole purpose of round-tripping. Banking has advanced significantly beyond that in Nigeria. It seems the game plan is to attract foreign funds, not from you guys, but from foreign institutions, and use them to finance projects in Nigeria. I deal with banks in Nigeria on a day to day basis, and I can tell you things have changed a lot, and they are a lot more focused than they were in the past, though the learning curve is still there. Cheers, chief. |

yicob: How much forex is lost to adverts to mass market on CNN compared to expected inflow with that effort? Why adverts to mass market when you can reach the people with forex to invest in Nigeria are small and can be reached in smaller cheaper medium? If more of that resource is directed to local media what will be the impact on the national economy? |
