SDGs: Access Bank advocates innovative financing models
Access Bank Plc has championed the call for corporate organizations to leverage innovative financing models and strategic partnerships in fostering the achievement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Group Head, Commercial Banking Division at Access Bank, Ralph Opara, made the call at the 2024 Medic West Africa Event, organised by ABCHealth in collaboration with Informa Markets, with the theme, “Healthcare Investments in Africa: Mobilizing the Private Sector to Drive Healthcare Investments in Africa”.
Lending his voice to the conversation, Opara said: “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
