Axxela Limited, sub-Saharan Africa’s preferred fastgrowing gas & power portfolio company, has been assigned national scale issuer ratings of BBB+(NG) and A2(NG) in the long term and short term respectively by Global Credit Ratings (“GCR”) with the outlook accorded as Stable. The ratings are valid until September 2019.

Speaking on the rating, Axxela CEO, Bolaji Osunsanya said: “As we implement a dynamic and focused strategy of developing high yield portfolio investments across the gas and power value chain, we are pleased with our favourable initial rating which will bolster investor confidence in our day-to-day operations and mid-long term strategy. With an upturn in gas exports, and industries requiring a cleaner, cost-efficient, and environmentally-friendly energy source, natural gas is now at the fore of global energy conversations. We now look forward to delivering on our commitments, and celebrating the successes of 2019.”

The ratings are integral to Axxela’s strategic diversification plans of gas supply and trading, and the build out of power and virtual pipeline infrastructure. The initiative further signifies the solid commitment from financial institutions to support the sustained growth and development of the Nigerian gas and power sector.
