Unveiled at a press briefing on July 23, the 8th edition, dubbed “The Fintech Ecosystem Symphony: Orchestrating Nigeria’s Digital Future”, aims to bring together over 20,000 participants from across sectors and regions.

Organised by the Fintech Association of Nigeria, NFW25 will explore how coordinated efforts between government, startups, corporates, and investors can fast-track innovation and financial inclusion across the continent.

“This is no longer just an event. It’s a movement,” said Dr. Stanley Jacob, president of the Fintech Association of Nigeria. “NFW25 will be where new partnerships are forged, sectors transformed, and the future of Nigeria’s digital economy is composed like a symphony.”

For the first time, Nigeria Fintech Week will span multiple locations, Abuja, Delta, and Enugu, before culminating at the Landmark Centre in Lagos.

The multi-city format is designed to widen participation and showcase the reach of fintech across Nigeria’s geopolitical zones.

According to Dr. Jameelah Sharrieff-Ayedun, vice president and chair of the Organising Committee, the expansion reinforces NFW’s commitment to accessibility and grassroots innovation. “Fintech is for everyone now, from farmers to students, from SMEs to regulators,” she said.

Uche Uzoebo, CEO of the Shared Agent Network Expansion Facilities Limited (SANEF) added, “Even churches, schools, and food vendors are digitising. NFW25 is where they’ll find solutions, partners, and tools to grow.”

Nigeria Fintech Week has grown since 2017 into Africa’s leading fintech gathering, driving policy shifts, investment, and digital transformation.

With this year’s expansive approach, the stage is set to orchestrate an even more inclusive and impactful digital future.

She made the remark at the 2024 Nigeria Fintech Week held in Lagos, recently.

The three-day event themed: Positioning Africa’s Fintech Ecosystem to Accelerate Inclusive growth’, brought together industry leaders to discuss strategies for leveraging generative Artificial Intelligence and transitioning from revenue-driven to profitability-focused business models.

In a keynote address – Powering Nigeria’s Fintech Ecosystem to Accelerate Growth, Branka Mracajac, highlighted that as Nigeria stands at the forefront of the fintech revolution in Africa, the market has experienced significant advancements.

She said the influx of startups and foreign investments is redefining how financial services are delivered.

“Innovations such as digital and mobile wallets are addressing the financial needs of millions of Nigerians”, Mracajac reiterated.

However, to sustain this momentum, she opined it is essential to address several challenges. With over 28 million adults lacking access to essential financial services, enhancing digital infrastructure and improving connectivity are critical. Furthermore, the affordability and accessibility of fintech products must be prioritized to ensure that all Nigerians can benefit from these advancements.

In her words,

“building trust with consumers is paramount. The fintech sector must ensure reliable data practices and provide educational resources to enhance understanding of available services. While the Central Bank of Nigeria and other regulatory bodies have taken significant steps to foster innovation, continued efforts are needed to protect consumers and create a supportive environment for industry growth.

The robust investment capital entering the fintech sector presents a tremendous opportunity for innovation. Numerous startups are emerging, ready to address the diverse needs of the population. To fully realize this potential, deeper collaboration and partnerships across the industry are essential.”

“The future of Nigeria’s fintech landscape is bright, but achieving its full potential requires a united effort and innovative thinking from all stakeholders. Together, the industry can accelerate growth and transform the financial services sector in Nigeria”, Mracajac added.

The Nigeria Fintech Week (NFW) is an annual event and a platform that provide opportunities for players and other stakeholders to come together, engage, share innovative knowledge, and experience that will drive the industry forward.

9 Payment Service Bank (9PSB) is a registered Nigerian bank operating under the approval of CBN to provide unique banking services to the underbanked, and unbanked, as well as innovative services to individuals with bank accounts.

9PSB operates as a fully digital bank and runs its agency network. 9PSB is a bank for everyone accessible by everyone and offers seamless online & offline banking experience.

Over the last six editions, the event has attracted more than 20,000 participants, more than 500 brands and representatives from more than 50 countries to explore trends, foster collaboration and shape the future of Africa’s dynamic and rapidly evolving fintech industry.

This year’s theme – “Positioning Africa’s Fintech Ecosystem to Accelerate Inclusive Growth” – underscores the critical role of financial technology solutions in driving much-needed economic expansion and development. Talking points will include corporate governance, Generative AI, Smart Regulation, Digital Assets, Risk Management and cybersecurity/fraud management, digital and economic inclusion, and other relevant topics.

This year’s event will be a hybrid event (online and in-person) and it is expected to host more than 20,000 attendees from more than 80 countries, as well as more than 100 speakers and more than 50 exhibitors.

Nigeria Fintech Week 2024 will be delivered in collaboration with Africa Fintech Network, Maycode and Talking Drum Communications.

Nigeria Fintech Week has earned the reputation of being Africa’s foremost assembly of Fintech pioneers and innovators, dedicated to fostering significant innovations, strategic collaborations, and transformative developments within the ecosystem.

In line with its steadfast commitment to advancing the financial sector, Remita participated in the event as a sponsor and exhibitor, with its Managing Director delivering a keynote address.

During the second day of the Nigeria Fintech Week, ‘Deremi Atanda, the Managing Director of Remita, highlighted the importance of embracing experimentation, fostering a culture of risk tolerance, and viewing failure as a means for rapid learning and innovation in his keynote address titled ‘Fail fast, Learn faster: Embracing failure as a path to success.’

He said, “In our pursuit of innovation, we must understand that success is often paved with failures. Therefore, we must consciously embrace experimentation, liberate ourselves from the constraints of a single framework, and use every setback as a stepping stone to progress.

Remita, once a failed project in 2005, now processes over $50 billion and millions of transactions. Indeed, failure is not a hindrance but a steppingstone to progress.”

As the fintech landscape in Nigeria and worldwide continues to evolve over the coming years, the imperative for innovation, adaptability, and resilience becomes increasingly clear.

According to ‘Deremi, companies aspiring to achieve significant success within the sector must consistently embrace new opportunities, engage in partnerships with traditional sectors, and accept the uncertainties that come with transformation.

“The evolving fintech landscape is characterised by a growing middle class, digital adoption, and the democratisation of financial services. It is an environment ripe for change, where businesses can redefine themselves and find success by adapting to the evolving needs of their customers.” He added.

Representing Mr John Obaro, the Group Managing Director (GMD) of SystemSpecs Holdings, in a fireside chat session titled “Building Resilience: Insights from Executives,” Mr Ademola Igbalajobi, Managing Director of SystemSpecs Technology Services Limited (STSL), stressed the importance of addressing customer challenges and delivering satisfaction as the key drivers of success for startups in the fintech sector.

He noted that “The prevailing emphasis in fintech appears to be on fundraising, often overshadowing the essential steps of achieving customer satisfaction and establishing a strong product-market fit. Drawing from our experience, we advise businesses to prioritise these foundational elements before seeking funding. It is imperative to lay solid product groundwork and dedicate concerted efforts to enhance its quality before venturing into discussions with prospective investors.”

Likewise, Mr Tokunbo Omonubi, Head of Products at Remita, shared valuable insights during a panel session that centred on effective marketing for business growth and expansion.

He emphasised the importance of creating products and services that have a real impact on consumers and stakeholders in the diverse business landscape of today.

Mr. Omonubi stated, “In today’s diverse business environment, it’s crucial to grasp how these enterprises influence consumers. This understanding forms the basis for establishing a harmonious connection between marketing strategies and product development, ultimately leading to products that authentically address customer needs.”

With a three-decade legacy of leadership, Remita has consistently played a pivotal role in shaping and transforming various facets of the financial services value chain.

Its enduring commitment to innovation and excellence has made it a driving force in the industry, setting new standards and contributing to the overall progress of the financial sector.

Remita was joined by other 50 top organisations within the sector to exhibit their cutting-edge technologies, contributing to a vibrant and innovative showcase of the latest advancements in the field.

The discussion delved into understanding and navigating regulatory frameworks, fostering a culture of resilience through risk management, and exploring case studies and best practices.

Moderating the session at the NFW was Yeye Nwidaa, Partner, Jackson, Etti & Edu, with Panelists including Tajudeen Mustapha, Head, Risk Management and Compliance at Xpress Payment Solutions Limited, Dr. Krish Ranganath, Regional Executive West Africa, Africa Data Centre, Gbolahan Atoyebi, Head, FSI Sales, MainOne, and Precious David, Associate, Udo Udoma & Belo-Osagie, UUBO

The discussion commenced with addressing compliance challenges in the Fintech sector. Various regulatory bodies, including CBN and SEC, oversee different aspects of Fintech, making compliance multifaceted. The speakers stressed the importance of understanding regulations and seeking legal counsel to ensure compliance.

Key Points:

1. Regulatory Understanding and Compliance:

• Comprehensive Compliance: Fintech companies must align their operations with a variety of regulations from different regulatory bodies.
• Legal Counsel: Engaging internal and external legal counsel is crucial. Startups should consult legal experts to navigate complex regulatory landscapes.

2. Risk Management and Culture of Compliance:

3. Strategies for Building Resilient Fintech Organizations:

• Innovation and Adaptability: Fintech companies need to innovate continuously. Adaptable strategies are vital to stay relevant and compliant in the rapidly changing technological landscape.
• Global Perspective: Fintech innovations should be viewed globally. Solutions should be scalable and adaptable for diverse markets.

4. Technological Innovation and Compliance:

• Balancing Innovation and Regulation: Innovations should align with regulatory standards. Striking a balance between creativity and compliance is crucial for sustainable growth.

5. Importance of Internal and External Legal Support:

Fintech companies need to balance innovation with a deep understanding of regulatory requirements, fostering a resilient culture of compliance and adaptability. In embracing a proactive approach to risk management and staying abreast of evolving regulations, Fintech organizations can thrive in the dynamic landscape of financial technology.

Fireside Chat for the Nigeria Fintech Week Day one focused on Building Resilience in the Fintech Ecosystem: Experience from Executives

The panellists were Kofo Akinkugbe, CEO, Secure ID, John Obaro, Founder & GMD, SystemSpecs, Ebehijie Momoh, Country Manager & Area Business Head, West Africa, Mastercard, while the moderator was Olumide Soyombo, Co-founder, Bluechip Technologies Ltd.

These industry leaders spoke on the challenges and opportunities shaping the African FinTech landscape. The conversation revolved around critical themes such as sustainable business models, regulatory compliance, customer-centric innovation, talent acquisition, and adaptability in an ever-changing Fintech environment.

Understanding the African FinTech Landscape: Diverse Challenges, Unique Solutions

Acknowledging the diversity within African markets, the panel emphasized the need to move away from the notion of a one-size-fits-all solution. Africa, and particularly Nigeria, presents a unique blend of cultures, economies, and consumer behaviors, making it essential for Fintech companies to adapt dynamically to cater to diverse needs.

One of the prominent challenges discussed was the race to raise funds versus the authenticity of products. It was noted that while fundraising is crucial, it shouldn’t overshadow the essence of creating genuine, problem-solving products. Panelists stressed the importance of understanding the market deeply, ensuring that innovations align with real needs rather than just financial trends.

Navigating Challenges: Cybersecurity and Customer-Centric Approach

The conversation then shifted to the challenges that keep Fintech executives awake at night. Cybersecurity emerged as a top concern, with panelists highlighting the need for continuous vigilance in an increasingly digital landscape. Understanding the dynamics of cyber threats and addressing them proactively became a focal point.

Additionally, the discussion emphasized the significance of customer feedback. FinTech companies need to evolve into more social entities, understanding the pulse of their consumers. This shift toward customer-centricity not only enhances the quality of products and services but also fosters trust and loyalty among users.

Embracing the Future: Opportunities Amidst Challenges

Despite the challenges, the panelists expressed optimism about the future of Fintech in Africa. They recognized the tremendous opportunities that lie in building solutions for the digitally native generation. With a growing youth population having unprecedented access to the internet, there is enormous potential to develop innovative digital solutions catering to their needs.

The Nigeria Fintech Week Day one panelists also stressed the importance of learning from failures. While success stories often take the spotlight, understanding the reasons behind failures can provide invaluable insights. Embracing failures, analyzing them critically, and deriving lessons are essential for the growth and resilience of the Fintech ecosystem.

Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, the President of the African Development Bank, gave a compelling keynote address. His insights shed light on the programme’s theme “Fintech: Resilience, Innovation, & Diversification” in the fintech industry, not only in Nigeria but across the entire African continent and the global fintech arena.

Nigeria Fintech Week has evolved into a pioneering event for financial sector leaders, not just within Nigeria but on a global scale. It serves as a platform for dialogue and collaboration between industry leaders, offering a unique opportunity to explore the latest trends and developments in fintech.

“The theme for this year’s Fintech Week, ‘Resilience, Innovation, and Diversification,’ resonates particularly with the current global economic landscape,” Adesina said speaking through Lamin Barrow, the Director General of Nigeria, African Development Bank (AfDB).

“Fintech companies are grappling with the need to adapt to rapidly changing conditions, particularly in the wake of global economic downturns characterized by volatility and heightened uncertainties. These challenges are particularly evident in Nigeria and other African nations, with manifestations in macroeconomic instability, rapid forex depreciation, and rising inflation. Consequently, Africa’s GDP growth has seen a decline, estimated at 2.8% in 2022, down from 4.8% in 2021.”

In light of these challenges, the need for resilience through innovation and product diversification has never been more urgent. The fintech sector in Africa plays a major role in building this resilience by driving financial inclusion across the continent. “Recent studies indicate that 33% of adults in sub-Saharan Africa have mobile money accounts, the largest of any region globally.”

Mobile Money Revolution

Speaking further, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina noted that the 2022 GSMA report highlights that Africa now accounts for 621 billion registered mobile money accounts, representing 46% of the global total and approximately 70% of the world’s $1 trillion mobile money transactions in 2021. The spread of mobile money accounts has opened doors to better serve underserved populations traditionally excluded from the formal financial system.

“The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the significant role digital technologies can play in managing shocks. Continents with advanced digital financial service ecosystems were able to scale up emergency cash transfer programs, demonstrating the resilience of fintech in addressing critical societal needs.”

Fintech Beyond Banking

African fintechs extend their impact well beyond banking and payments. From healthtech solutions that make healthcare accessible with just a click, to agritech platforms connecting farms to markets and providing real-time weather forecasts, and affordable education services, innovation is driving inclusion and addressing various societal needs.

Global Investor Attraction

African fintechs’ capacity to innovate has attracted global investors. “Reports from Disrupt Africa and the International Finance Corporation reveal that there were 26 reported fintech acquisitions in Africa between June 2021 and July 2022. In 2021, 63% of tech funding in the continent, amounting to $2.7 billion, went to the fintech industry,” Dr. Akinwumi Adesina highlighted.

Nigeria’s Growth Potential

As the hub of the African fintech industry, Nigeria has seen the emergence of five of the 11 digital companies that have reached unicorn status. To witness significant growth in the fintech industry, Nigeria must further integrate technology into business activities. This necessitates domesticating the Startup Act and implementing regulatory reforms to simplify procedures for cross-border trade transactions, enhance access to finance for startups, and accelerate SME integration in e-commerce.

The African Development Bank’s Commitment

The African Development Bank strongly believes that a resilient, innovative, and diversified fintech sector is key to accelerating economic transformation in the continent. The bank is actively supporting African countries in bridging digital infrastructure and knowledge gaps, creating a conducive business environment to promote entrepreneurship and innovation in the fintech industry, and upskilling the youth to prepare them for the jobs of the future.

Since 2012, the African Development Bank has invested approximately $2 billion in 40 innovation and ICT projects across the continent. Notably, this includes $170 million in financing for the investment in digital and creative enterprises projects in Nigeria, a significant component of which is the establishment of venture capital funds to support startups in the digital creative industries.

Dr. Akinwumi Adesina’s keynote address at NFW Day 1 emphasized the key role that fintech plays in Africa’s economic development. In fostering resilience, innovation, and diversification, the fintech industry addresses economic challenges and also provides innovative solutions to improve the quality of life for people across the continent. 

The African Development Bank’s commitment to this sector further emphasizes the transformative potential of fintech in Africa.
