As families across Nigeria prepare for the new academic session, Keystone Bank Limited has reiterated its commitment to supporting parents, students and educational institutions with financial solutions designed to make education more accessible and manageable.

In a statement on Monday, Keystone Bank said it recognises that school fees and other education-related expenses often place additional financial pressure on families at the start of a new session. It said it has therefore provided financing and savings solutions to cater to different stages of the education journey.

According to the bank, “One of our key offerings is EduFinance, which enables salary earners to finance educational expenses for themselves, their children or wards, covering studies from early education through the tertiary level, as well as professional certifications. The facility is open to eligible salary earners, irrespective of the bank into which their salaries are paid.

“For parents looking to plan ahead for their children’s education, the Keystone Future Account provides a structured savings option for children and teenagers. The account is designed to encourage early savings while helping parents and guardians build funds towards future educational needs.

“Similarly, the Keystone Evolve Account, designed for students in tertiary institutions and NYSC members, provides young people with an opportunity to develop financial independence and manage their finances as they navigate higher education and early adulthood.

“Our support also extends to educational institutions through the School Support Loan, which provides financing to eligible privately owned and registered schools to meet working capital and asset financing needs. The facility can support areas including school renovations, equipment purchases, school buses, computers, inventory and other operational requirements,” the bank said.

It added, “Customers interested in Keystone Bank’s education solutions can visit any branch or use the bank’s official channels to explore the available options and identify the solution best suited to their needs.”

Keystone Bank’s education-focused offerings form part of its broader commitment to developing solutions that respond to the everyday financial needs and aspirations of individuals, families and businesses.
