membranus: JP Morgan is a global Integrated financial holding company with a VC arm. They are not doing alternative investment (which is what venture capital and private equity are) with customer deposits but with capital provided by LPs (Limited Partners). |

membranus: I'd beg to disagree on that. Those banks have their Investment Banking divisions that provide services relating to advisory, due diligence, M&A, etc. JP Morgan has a Private Equity holding (JP Morgan Partners LLC) not VC. Modus operandi of VCs and PEs are quite different. PE firms provide funding with a view to gaining majority control of an existing or mature firm. Firms that are well past their growth phase. VCs on the other hand are not primarily interested in having majority control, but would rather provide funding to have a stake in early-stage startups that have a high potential for strong growth and performance. Those are the kind of partners OP should be looking for. Banks and PE firms would rather be interested in investing in an already running company (usually one they deem to be under-performing and under-estimated, take control of the company's management and operations, turn it around for the better and then sell it off - exit the investment per se - when the fortunes of the acquired company have improved). |

IsaacRocks: Sorry for your experience. As a rule, Nigerian banks do not lend to start-ups. There's too much risk involved and no track record with which they can make informed financial decision. Your best bet is family and friends, then other people's money (OPM). The govt option through CBN and it's subsidiaries is a hit or miss. Welcome to Nigeria. |

membranus: NEW YORK, Nov 5 (Reuters) - JPMorgan Chase & Co said on Tuesday that it hired a team of four bankers to lead a new team in its commercial bank that connects venture capital investors with fast-growing start-ups in technology, life sciences and other fields. The key word is connect. CONNECT not OPERATE During my time in the bank I actually met people with great business ideas. I knew that the bank would not loan money for a plan so I connected them with people who could partner with them and "hands offed" the project. |

membranus: Kindly re-read the article. JP is serving as an intermediary between VC investors and banks that service startups. It's not going to be providing funds for investment but rather a network of connections and clients.

poiZon: In US, a college degree certificate is a huge investment. And the financiers, the bank and the employers knows one thing in common. They need more labor... More trained labor but training labor is very expensive and most labourers can't afford to be trained so the created the college loan system with the aim of training laborers on credit, when the labourer start working fanaciers due to the efficient loan management system he pays back his employers. But for enterprise, you are a competitor, with no benefit to the financier. |

Op, Nigerian banks wount give you financing simply because Nigerians do not have a repayment culture. When it is time to pay, they come up with all sorts of excuses. The banks have looked at it as not worth the effort to chase loan defaulters, so the just avoid placing themselves in the creditor situation. OP see as you are humble now seeking financing, when it is time to pay your voice go change. If the banks use unconventional means eg contacting you contacts like sokoloan does, una go complain. So basically no one gives loans unless you work in civil service, multinationals etc where loans will have direct debit from your salary account. 2 Likes |

Wrong move! Until you have an MVP (a minimum viable product), you don't need a bank loan for a business. You should rather talk to angel investors and friends and family for funding. Read up on the various ways to raise money for a startup as a founder. |
