How To Get The Nyif Logn And Loan Approval

The Federal Ministry Of Youth And Sports Development (FMYSD) established the Nigerian Youth Investment Fund (NYIF), which was funded by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), to invest in young people’s business ideas that could help Nigerians start-up businesses and create more jobs.

The fund’s goal is to invest in Nigerian youngsters’ creative ideas, talents, and abilities so they can become business owners, wealth producers, and labour employers who further the development of their country.

The NYIF outlines the necessary steps to assist in business establishment, expansion, and subsequent employment creation for youth in important economic and social areas. It is aimed at young people between the ages of 18 and 35. Through its official webpage, the National Youth Investment Fund (NYIF) is now approving the application status of selected candidates.

To empower young Nigerian entrepreneurs and the nation, the program was created by the federal government in partnership with the Nirsal Microfinance Bank (NMFB) and the Central Bank of Nigeria. Over a thousand candidates have benefited from the program since it began at the beginning of last year.
