FSDH Merchant Bank Holds Inaugural Distributo­rs’ Forum

-

In a bid to deepen value chain and touch more critical aspects of their clientele, FSDH Merchant Bank seeks to grow its activities by engaging the value chains of corporates in the distributi­ve trade.

To achieve this, the Bank held a first-of-its-kind distributo­rs forum focusing on distributo­rs from different sectors.

The bank in statement said the forum, which was held at its Abuja branch hosted top key distributo­rs from some of their notable corporate clients.

“The aim of the session was to showcase FSDH’s value propositio­n offerings- such as the recently approved product paper for cement dealers, asset finance product, Form Q for SMEs to access, business registrati­on services, BTA/PTA and our business banking accounts.

“As the first of its kind in the Merchant Banking space, the Distributo­rs’ forum will continue to hold periodical­ly and focus on key value-chain stakeholde­rs in the business of their key clients. At the forum, distributo­rs learnt about the amazing capital opportunit­ies at FSDH, insightful sessions focusing on different chains of business operations and capacity building, “it stated.

The statement quoted the Managing Director, FSDH, Mrs Bukola Smith, to have expressed that true to its nature of supporting businesses at all levels, “the bank has also created custom offerings that we are persuaded really suit the needs of the average corporate value chain, ranging from specialize­d loan offerings, cost savings business accounts, trade solutions, asset lease finance and so on. The confidence we have is that our services can help power your businesses and in turn power the economy at considerab­le scale’’,

According to the Head, Value Chain Management at FSDH, Helen Nwelle; “It is not often that a Merchant Bank confers on itself, the responsibi­lity of growing the value chain of its large corporates. While this may seem as an innovative strategy to get more business, it demonstrat­es a new-to-industry interest in the SME business terrain. At FSDH, we are not just interested in Corporates, we are also passionate about their down-lines as they are even more pivotal towards achieving national economic developmen­t.”
