The international subsidiary of Nigeria’s Fidelity Bank Plc, FidBank UK Limited, has announced a commitment to support Nigerians and their corporations in acquiring properties in the United Kingdom.
Fidbank UK, which provides a comprehensive suite of financial services, including trade finance, personal and business banking, treasury services, commercial lending, and private banking, is set to deliver tailored financial solutions for high-net-worth individuals (HNIs) seeking to invest in the UK real estate market through its FidBank Buy-to-Let product.
Speaking at an exclusive product showcase hosted by the British Deputy High Commissioner, Jonny Baxter, in Lagos for a select audience comprising captains of industry and corporate leaders, the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of FidBank UK Ltd, Johnson Enemadu, stated that the event is about showcasing to the market and our customers that there is something exciting in the market and we are able to take them along in this journey,
According to him, the bank will support their businesses by bringing capital both in the financial institutions and corporate space and also for our high networth inidividuals.
“It is a total experience. Today’s event is also taking place against the backdrop of strengthened bilateral relations between Nigeria and the United Kingdom, highlighted by the recent state visit of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to the UK. This renewed engagement between both countries continues to unlock new pathways for trade, investment, and financial collaboration; and FidBank UK is pleased to play a leading role in driving this.”
In his remarks, the British Deputy High Commissioner in Lagos, Jonny Baxter said: “The United Kingdom remains firmly committed to deepening its economic partnership with Nigeria, with a clear focus on driving inclusive, sustainable investment, trade and economic growth. London’s position as a leading global financial centre is central to this, supported by robust financial infrastructure that enables efficient trade flows and seamless cross-border transactions between our markets.
It is therefore encouraging to see institutions such as FidBank UK advancing financial service offerings that not only expand investment opportunities in the UK, but also strengthen the financial systems supporting growing commercial ties. We welcome and support efforts that continue to enhance liquidity, facilitate trade, and drive sustainable UK-Nigeria economic connections.”
According to local media reports, the event also featured art exhibitions by two of Nigeria’s leading visual art talents -Femi Morakinyo and Oswald Chukwunyeremugo – who displayed their latest works to the admiration of the guests.
