BOI Mulls Increase Funding To Mining Sector<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Bank of Industry (BoI) has pledged to increase funding support to the mining sector in the country, order to improve the sector\u2019s contribution to the Gross Domestic Product.<\/p>\n

Acting Managing Director, BoI, Mr. Waheed Olagunju, stated this while speaking on the sidelines of the International Mining Investment Conference, which held in Abuja.<\/p>\n

He stated that the plan to increase funding to the sector was part of the bank\u2019s efforts aimed at supporting the quest of the Federal Government to diversify its revenue base.<\/p>\n

Olagunju noted that the bank had reached out to other financial institutions, both at home and abroad, to mobilise funding to promote mining activities in the country.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cWe are aware that our government and the private sector are now collaborating to produce the data.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce the credible data is produced, we will be able to catalyze more investment resources into the country, particularly from abroad.<\/p>

\u201cA lot of international financiers and investors are willing to operate in Nigeria in partnership with the Bank of Industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the viability of the development finance institution to mobilise funding support for the mining sector, Olagunju said that the bank had a high credit rating.<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cThere are a lot of grants that are meant to support solid minerals development.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce there is a reliable financial institution, those donors will feel comfortable to make grant available. BoI is already well positioned to act in the regards.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are supporting real sector in a viable manner; we take our time to identify genuine entrepreneurs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
