Pan African financial Institution, United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc has emphasized its unwavering commitment to the support of businesses and financial inclusion in Africa through its array of consumer lending products.

There has been clear evidence that credit remains a major economic stimulant and growth driver; but this has been largely inaccessible to the informal sector which dominates the African economies and small businesses that constitute the primary growth engine.

Consequently, the bank has further deepened its consumer lending product offerings with an aim to delivering services that will empower the customers, thus stimulating economic growth on the continent.
