Access Corporation and PSHAN: A Partnership Towards the Advancement of Healthcare Outcomes in Nigeria

Over the past 26 years Access Corporation has transformed from a local Nigerian bank into a prominent African financial institution. It now ranks among the top five banks in Nigeria by assets, loans, deposits, and branch network. This remarkable growth is attributed to a steadfast dedication to client solutions and innovative financial advice. Initially focused on corporate banking, Access Corporation broadened its reach by acquiring Nigeria’s International Commercial Bank in 2012. In the two years following this acquisition, the company integrated its operations, invested in infrastructure, and enhanced its product offerings.

 

Beyond offering financial services, Access Corporation is dedicated to overall well-being. Through its various branches—such as Access Bank Group, Access Pensions, a Payment and Switching Services Company, a Digital Lending Company, and an Insurance Brokerage Company—it understands the important connection between financial stability and health. Since joining Private Sector Health Alliance of Nigeria (PSHAN) in 2014, Access Corporation has dedicated efforts to transforming healthcare in Nigeria, significantly improving accessibility and quality nationwide. A standout initiative is the Malaria-to-Zero campaign, an innovative financing platform mobilising private sector resources to avert at least 1 million malaria cases and deaths by 2020. This initiative reflects Access Corporation’s dedication to public health and its ability to lead impactful health projects.

 

As a member of PSHAN, Access Corporation plays a pivotal role in the Adopt-a Healthcare-Facility Programme (ADHFP), enhancing healthcare quality and access across Nigeria. Through strategic partnerships and substantial significant support funding, Access Corporation works to bolster healthcare infrastructure,provide essential medical supplies, and promote health education in primary healthcare centres nationwide. This collaboration underscores dedication to improving health outcomes and supporting effective health policy reforms. Through the Adopt-a Healthcare-Facility Programme (ADHFP), PSHAN invites forward thinking individuals and organisations to join the movement to bring quality healthcare to Nigerians. By becoming adopters, members, and partners, companies organisations not only contribute to healthcare improvements, but can also enjoy the benefits of making tax deductible donations that enhance their CSR profiles.
