Wema Bank SME Business Advisory
Wema Bank is constantly creating avenues to enable it respond to the many challenges faced by SMEs in Nigeria. We have found that most of the pressing problems SMEs face are born out of a lack of knowledge/information.
In response to this, we have created numerous ways to offer business advisory solutions to SME customers.
SME Business School
Wema Bank SME team launched the SME Business School to equip SMEs with basic management knowledge required to guide them in the effective running of their businesses. The school curriculum is designed to close the knowledge gap that plagues most SMEs, leading to poor business structure and management.
