The Bridge, Africa’s number one financial literacy by Businessday, in the finale of its second season, features Nnenna Jacob Ogogo, Head of Women in Business Desk, at First City Monument Bank.

 In this episode, Ogogo speaks about FCMB’s passion for promoting women-owned businesses, and FCMB's Women in Business desk, where women-owned businesses are empowered with tools to help them scale their operations. 

 According to statistics, 48% percent of SMEs in Nigeria are owned by women and only 17% of these businesses are supported by Nigerian banks.  These businesses are not properly structured. Their owners lack the basic tools and knowledge to make these businesses truly profitable. FCMB is bridging this gap by providing access to finance, capacity building and access to knowledge.
