SDG targets: Access Bank leads call for innovative financing models

Access Bank Plc is now leading the advocacy for corporate organizations to leverage innovative financing models and strategic partnerships to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The foremost Banker reaffirmed its dedication to fostering positive transformation in healthcare across Africa during the 2024 Medic West Africa Event, organized by ABCHealth in collaboration with Informa Markets.

The event served as a platform for stakeholders across industries. The deliberation was on the theme ‘Healthcare Investments in Africa: Mobilizing the Private Sector to Drive Healthcare Investments in Africa,’ and it aimed to chart a path through which corporates can leverage innovative financing models and strategic partnerships in fostering the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

The Group Head, Commercial Banking Division at Access Bank, Ralph Opara, made the call at event, stating: “The government can’t carry the burden of the health sector alone. Hence, it is imperative that the private sector explores and implements innovative financing models and strategic partnerships to bridge the healthcare investment gap.”

He noted that collaborative effort between the public and private sectors is not only crucial but essential to driving innovation, improving healthcare accessibility, and ensuring sustainable development across the continent.
