Infrastructure Credit Guarantee Company Limited (InfraCredit) was established in 2017 by the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) in collaboration with GuarantCo (part of the Private Infrastructure Development Group). Its mission is to unlock long-term, local currency capital for infrastructure financing in Nigeria. InfraCredit provides credit guarantees for debt instruments like bonds, which enhances their credit rating and makes them more attractive to institutional investors such as pension funds and insurance companies. This mechanism helps to de-risk projects, lower the cost of capital, and stimulate private sector investment in critical infrastructure sectors.
