GUEST - Andiswa Bata, SME Segment Head at FNB

Accessing the right funding and financing, at the right time, can mean the difference between starting up, staying open, or shutting down.



“The economy is facing a challenging business environment, with slow global growth, economic volatility, and ongoing power supply issues. This means that many businesses in South Africa are still trying to find their financial footing. This is especially true for small businesses, which play such an important role in the local economy. That’s where good credit comes in - as access to the right type of funding and finance can help SMEs grow, innovate, and create jobs,” says Andiswa Bata, SME Segment Head at FNB.
