AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Central Bank Rules: Nigeria’s CBN loosened limits on how banks use its Standing Lending Facility and join FX and government securities activity, aiming to give lenders more flexibility while keeping liquidity access. Local Business & Permitting: Rockingham, North Carolina will hold a public hearing on rezoning 165 acres for a phased data center after builders showed low interest in nearby residential plans. SMB Lending: TAB Bank extended a $3.5M factoring facility for Indiana’s Cadillac Coffee Company, adding an inventory sublimit to support working capital. AI for Industry: Odysight.ai reported a first-half 2026 update and a new Boeing purchase order to demo AI-powered predictive maintenance at two Boeing sites. Data Center Costs: Texas data center operators agreed to meet new state power and water standards, with developers expected to pay for grid upgrades instead of shifting costs to residents and small businesses. Tax Transparency Rollback: The US Treasury permanently ended beneficial ownership reporting under the Corporate Transparency Act and will delete collected records. Training Pressure: UK small firms cut training as employment costs and tax bills rise, threatening early-career hiring. SMB Support Access: Canada’s North Simcoe Business Centre will launch monthly local coaching pop-ups with financing guidance for entrepreneurs.
