Nigeria’s leading commercial bank, Sterling Bank Plc has launched Gazelle, a versatile digital loan application system that provides corporate customers with a more innovative way to finance their business.
The new innovation is a one-stop digital solution for all corporate credit solutions, particularly for business and corporate enterprises.
Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (MD/CEO) of the Bank, Abubakar Suleiman said launching the product, among other digital banking products, has positioned Sterling Bank as a leader in innovative digital solutions in the corporate lending space for businesses.
“With Gazelle, corporate customers will experience a smarter way to access finance and achieve sustainable growth for their businesses.”
The CEO urged business owners to visit gazelle.ng on the internet to get loans faster and more conveniently to meet the needs of their businesses.
How Gazelle Works
A prospective customer goes through to sign up for the service:
“First, the customer sets up a profile for the business and begins the business evaluation process by answering all relevant questions regarding the company while uploading the required supporting documents.
“Next, the business profile is approved after the customer has received an obligor assessment report following the validation of the information and documents provided.
“Once the profile is approved, the customer can request a loan and get a decision from the bank. The loan will then be disbursed if the customer meets the conditions for loan disbursement and receives said loan through its preferred channel.”
Sterling Bank is one of the leading banks in digital banking services. Some of the bank’s other digital products include Specta, PaywithSpecta, Imperium, Omni X, Doubble, I-invest, Alt Mall and OneBank.
The bank has recently recorded more than 220 per cent growth in retail lending through Specta, its flagship online lending solution, and its variant, PaywithSpecta.
