The Nigerian Senate has advanced the Factoring, Assignments and Receivables Financing Bill to its second reading, a legislative move aimed at enhancing financial access for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). This bill proposes a framework that would allow businesses to convert unpaid invoices and credit sales into immediate cash, thereby reducing their dependence on traditional bank loans. If enacted, the legislation is expected to provide a significant boost to the liquidity of MSMEs, facilitating their growth and sustainability in the competitive market. The initiative reflects a growing recognition of the challenges faced by small businesses in securing adequate funding.
