Oil & gas, and financial services dominate depositors in the top 100.
Moniepoint’s natural focus will be more towards the mid-size corporates. Manufacturing, consumer goods, technology & communications and logistics are relevant verticals in this size range.
Type of deposit:
Type of deposit | % growth in 2024 YTD (in NGN terms) |
|---|---|
Demand | 15.0% |
Savings | 29.2% |
Call | 1.5% |
Term | 17.2% |
Foreign currency | 86.8% |
Foreign currency deposits (the overwhelming majority denominated in USD) have seen a huge surge in growth due to Naira devaluation- for the first time foreign currency deposits now make up more than Naira deposits.
To be appealing to many corporate and high net worth individual customers, the data makes it clear that Moniepoint will need to have a strong USD deposits offering.

Rationale for top 3 prioritisation choices
...
Retail & general trade is a broad industry category, and allows focus on servicing distributors in sub-sectors. Suggestions:
...
Supermarkets
Pharmacies
Restaurants
Each of these allow subsequent expansion upwards into the manufacturing supply chain for these industries.
...
This will allow Moniepoint to create USD denominated deposits products that have a competitive advantage relative to others in the domestic Nigerian market.
Oil & Gas
Oil & Gas distribution is the third largest by number of transactions for Moniepoint today, and is the industry with the largest percentage of profitable accounts.
This is crucial for competitive offerings in the market today.
Manufacturing
Moniepoint has good penetration, can build a market-leading ERP solution solving real pain points, and work our way up into midstream and upstream which is the 6th largest industry in Nigeriaand down deeper into industry verticals.
Agriculture is the largest industry in Nigeria- why is it not included?
Most of agriculture is subsistence. Only an estimated 5% of agriculture is mechanised industry. In addition, only 15% of current Moniepoint merchants are top 30% by profitability.
Summary- prioritisation
Retail & general trade
Supermarkets
Pharmacies
Restaurants
Fuel stations (to eventually expand to midstream and upstream)
Remittances distribution
Manufacturing
