Analytic Narratives
Derived from aggregated field audit and RVR diagnostic data. Updated quarterly.
Top 5 States by RPI Improvement
Benue (+11pts), Kano (+9pts), Oyo (+8pts), Rivers (+7pts), Kaduna (+6pts) lead RPI growth, all driven by post-harvest processing infrastructure installed in Q1–Q2.
States With Highest Gender Asset Control Gains
Anambra (+8pts), Lagos (+7pts), and Enugu (+6pts) show the fastest gains in women’s productive asset ownership, correlated with health sector RSE growth and formal GESI training cohorts.
Agriculture Value Retention Leaders
Benue (₦4.2M retained), Kano (₦3.8M), and Plateau (₦2.9M) lead agri-sector value retention. Value capture gains linked to structured off-take agreement delivery.
Zones With Highest SROI Growth
North West leads at 4.2× average SROI, driven by agriculture and energy vertical expansion. South West second at 3.9×. North East at 2.9× presents highest intervention opportunity.
Q3 Operational Disruption Patterns
25 states recorded operational losses in Q3 2024 due to seasonal flooding. Average 23-day downtime in South-South and North Central. Climate resilience infrastructure is the highest-ROI intervention.
CAC Registration Rate Improving
45% of profiled RSEs are now CAC-registered, up from 31% in 2022. 28% are in active registration. The 27% unregistered cohort remains the primary barrier to DFI capital access.

Metric Definitions
Social Return on Investment
Converts social outcomes into financial proxies. Expressed as a ratio (e.g. 3.8× means ₦3.80 of verified social value per ₦1 invested). Calculated using the Prosperity Framework and mapped inputs, outputs, outcomes, and impact.
Rural Prosperity Index
A composite score (0–100) measuring whether enterprise growth translates into retained community wealth. Tracks local reinvestment rates, value chain retention, and gender-disaggregated income distribution. Production growth without value retention does not improve RPI.
Gender Equity & Social Inclusion
A percentage score measuring women’s ownership share, decision-making authority, and labour-to-value-capture ratio within each RSE. Also tracks youth cohort participation. Supports DFI inclusion threshold compliance documentation.
Value Retention Index
Measures what percentage of revenue generated by an RSE stays within its local community rather than leaking to intermediaries. Calculated from the full value chain diagnostic (production through final market). Expressed as a 0–100 score.
Request an RVR Diagnostic
Available across Nigeria’s 6 geopolitical zones. Produces a structured diagnostic report within 3–5 business days. No grant disbursement. No equity taken.
