The Access Bank UK Limited was delighted to attend GTR East Africa 2025, where we joined over 600 delegates in Nairobi for two days of dynamic engagement around the future of trade and investment across the region. The event proved to be a valuable platform for connecting with customers, partners, and industry stakeholders to exchange insights and explore new opportunities.

Conversations throughout the event highlighted the evolving landscape of trade finance in East Africa, with a strong emphasis on the role of financial institutions in enabling sustainable growth. Key topics included infrastructure investment, value addition in priority sectors, and the adoption of sustainability-linked financing solutions—many of which align closely with our strategic focus at The Access Bank UK Limited.

We were particularly encouraged by sessions exploring the practical challenges corporates face in accessing working capital, and how both traditional instruments and technology-driven solutions can support businesses in navigating an increasingly complex funding environment. As a long-standing partner in African trade, we understand the importance of aligning financial solutions with long-term growth strategies and remain committed to supporting our customers with tailored, reliable offerings across markets.

GTR East Africa 2025 reinforced the importance of collaboration, innovation, and sustained investment in the region. We look forward to continuing our contribution to East Africa’s trade and development journey.
