If loans were that easy to get, we would all get one, especially as we deal with the fallouts of COVID 19. However, in this article, we will talk about easy steps to get the Bank of Industry Loan in Nigeria without breaking a sweat.

The Bank of Industry, also known as BOI, is one of Nigeria’s biggest financing institutions. They have helped finance numerous projects in the country leading to sufficient growth. Their loans are mainly targeted to the Agricultural, Solid Minerals, Oil and Gas, and Information Technology Sectors.

Bank of Industry Loans Origin

BOI began in Nigeria as the Nigerian Industrial Development Bank (NIDB) Limited in 1964. The name BOI came into existence in 2001, after the restructuring of the finance company.

At the time, it was a deliberate act to place the Bank in a better position to provide efficient yet profitable funding. That same year, recapitalization was achieved, amounting to over N250 billion. The BOI headquarters was also opened in Lagos.

By 2016, the Bank has successfully funded thousands of projects and also launched a successful N10 billion Youths Entrepreneurship Support (YES) to help startup businesses.

Despite its successes, many Nigerians still struggle to gain loans from the Bank for numerous reasons. So In this article, we will straighten out whatever you know about getting loans from BOI.

What You Cannot Expect From BOI

  1. The Bank of Industry does not provide funding outside equipment. If you are seeking loans for land and building, then they are not an option.
  2. You cannot receive cash from BOI. Only your suppliers and vendors will directly receive the loan you requested.
  3. The Bank of Industry supports only businesses in the processing and manufacturing scene across all sectors.
  4. The BOI loan is only given to businesses or companies and not a group of persons or individuals
  5. Businesses or companies must be register as a Limited Liability Company or possess an officially registered business name before application.
  6. Not all startups are welcome, especially those opened by individuals with questionable past. You must provide proof that you have experience for many years in the said business area and have a qualified team in place.

Who can apply for the Bank of Industry Loan?

  • Small, Medium or Large-Scale Businesses
  • New and Existing Businesses
  • Borrowers must have a reputable credit history without discrepancies in payments for previous loans
  • Borrowers cannot access loans from the Bank of Industry if they have outstanding loans from other banks or financial institutions.

Loan applications accepted by BOI

The following are businesses that may request loans from the BOI with increased chances of approval.  Bear in mind, finances will only be used for getting the equipment for production and nothing else. You can also access working capital from BOI’s SME partners.

Concluding Thoughts

The Bank of Industry gives loans to businesses with good standing.

Nevertheless, these loans can only be used for equipment or working capital and nothing else.

You must have realized that we’ve concentrated wholly on the requirements. The truth is that BOI can process your loans in a very short time as long as you need all the requirements. There processes are very fast. If you don’t, there’s no need applying or it might be a waste of your precious time.
