PiggyVest
- Co-founded by Odunayo Eweniyi, Somto Ifezue and Joshua Chibueze.
- These three are some of the biggest players in Nigeria’s fintech industry, having taken a popular yet traditional form of savings, ajo (thrift contribution) and redefined it into a million-plus-user platform accessible to people who are either looking to save money or to manage their wealth outside of the traditional banks. In 2016, the trio launched a savings app, then known as Piggybank.ng. In 2019, their app transitioned into a wealth-management platform and ended the year with more than one million users who had saved about $80m, according to Eweniyi.
