In Nigeria, traditional bank financing for projects is proving steadily more difficult to access as interest rates for Naira loans remain very high and obtaining US Dollar loans becomes increasingly difficult.
This has led private investors and sponsors to a search for non-traditional sources of financing for their projects.
It is on those lines, that ǼLEX (“the Firm”) is organising and hosting a roundtable which brings together stakeholders and project sponsors with discussions centered around how to structure and pitch projects such that they attract funding from Development Finance Institutions (“the Roundtable”).

We hereby invite you to the forthcoming Roundtable ‘Unlocking DFI Funding for the Private Sector’ to be held at our office at Union Marble House, 4thFloor, 1 Kingsway Road, Falomo, Ikoyi, Lagos, Nigeria on 24 July 2019from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

Limited spaces available, kindly send an email with your full name, occupation and company designation to aafegbua@aelex.com
