Nigerian Fintech Sycamore Expands Beyond Lending, With Shift Into Integrated Financial Services Model - Tekedia

Sycamore is expanding from peer-to-peer lending into an integrated financial services group.

The company has been restructured into three regulated entities and now offers loans, investments, banking, and asset management.

After securing a March 2025 SEC fund-management license, Sycamore added licensed investment and banking capabilities.

The fintech says its broader platform now serves more than 400,000 users across lending, savings, investments, and transactions.

The move reflects a wider trend among African fintechs toward full-service financial ecosystems and stronger competition in Nigeria.
