In a bid to boost Nigeria’s foreign exchange earnings, the Nigerian Export-Import Bank has partnered with Fidelity Bank Plc and Sapphital Learning Limited.
According to NEXIM, the partnership would help improve the skills and performance of export businesses in Nigeria by leveraging the NEXIM Export Academy (NEXA), an online platform that provides exporters with capacity-building training and access to finance to scale their business.
It stated that the NEXA platform which was launched with the support of Sapphital (a digital learning institute) in 2022, was designed to empower millions of businesses with resources needed to run successful export operations, perform at higher levels of quality control, and compete favourably in the global market.
The platform aimed to drive the growth of non-oil exports and foreign exchange by connecting all the stakeholders along the value chain to enhance learning, improve quality, and grow intra-African and global trade.
