What SME Foundry's content is, and what it is not.
Last updated: August 29, 2026
SME Foundry publishes content for Nigerian and African business owners, entrepreneurs, and workers. This page explains what our content is, and what it is not.
Not professional advice
Nothing on SME Foundry, including our Guides, Articles, tools, or content from partners, is legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice. It is general information for a wide audience, not advice made specifically for your business or situation.
Before you make a decision based on something you read here, especially about business registration, taxes, contracts, hiring, or funding, please speak to a qualified professional, such as a lawyer or a licensed accountant, who can look at your actual situation.
Laws, tax rates, and rules for businesses in Nigeria and across Africa can change quickly. We try to keep our content correct and to fix it when it is wrong (see our Editorial Policy), but we cannot promise that everything on the site reflects the current rules at the moment you read it. Always check with the right government body, such as CAC, FIRS, or NAFDAC, or with a licensed professional, before you act.
Following advice from SME Foundry does not guarantee any specific result for your business. Every business is different, and something that worked for a business we wrote about may not work the same way for you.
Businesses listed in our Directory, or connected to you through our Partner Network, are separate companies. Being listed, or being referred to you, is not an endorsement from us. It is not a promise that the business is good, reliable, or fairly priced. Please do your own research before working with any business you find through SME Foundry.
We sometimes link to outside websites, government pages, or other resources. We do not control these sites and are not responsible for what they say or do.
When content on our site is paid for or made with a business partner, we always label it clearly. Sponsored content shows the sponsor’s point of view. It is not the same as our own independent recommendation, even though we hold it to the same standard of accuracy. See our Editorial Policy for how this works.
As far as the law allows, SME Foundry is not responsible for any loss, damage, or business decision that comes from relying on our content. Please also read our full Terms of Use, which covers how you can use the Platform.
