AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

SME Finance: OPay says its Nigerian loan volume rose 204% in the first half of 2026, with Stanbic planning an investment of up to $200 million, subject to approvals and completion of OPay’s IPO. The fintech says it lends to individuals and small businesses. Business Tools: Ibadan startup startbuddi is bringing customer management, marketing and daily operations into one workspace, aiming to cut the hassle of juggling multiple apps. Operating Costs: Malawi’s fuel shortage is disrupting deliveries and reducing customer traffic in Lilongwe, adding pressure on businesses that rely on transport. Trade Access: A Togo workshop helped 50 businesses learn AfCFTA trade rules, including origin requirements that can help local MSMEs export. Trader Support: Ghana’s SSNIT says it will document traders displaced by the Labadi beachfront demolition and provide some with market space or jobs before Christmas.
