“Access bank is a bank that cares about you. We see ourselves as partners and we want to add value to your lives and to your businesses and we want to have impact on the nation.”
Etuokwu added that the bank would
be available to support the financial aspect of their business and training and capacity building for its customers.
“There are so many people who are running businesses and don’t understand the difference between cash floor and profit but if you understand, it will enable you to have a business survival technique.
“The third thing we will help you to do is put you in a community of people like you so that you can network. Networking is important for any business,” he added.
