The Central Bank of Nigeria CBN has 22nd May, 2022 revoked licenses of microfinance banks, fiancé companies and Primary mortgage banks in Nigeria.

The CBN on its website said the licenses totaling 179 Microfinance banks, three finance companies, and four Primary Mortgage banks were revoked for their failure to meet up with the type of business for which their licenses were issued for a continuous period of 6 months.

Citing the CBN’s Banks And Other Financial Institutions Act (BOFIA), 2020, ACT NO. 5 the CBN Governor Godwill Emiefele gave reasons why the apex banks decided to revoke their operational licenses.

He stated the reasons as follows:

“WHEREAS : The Microfinance Banks, Finance Companies and Primary Mortgage Banks stated in Schedules I, II and III respectively, hereto, have:

ceased to carry on, in Nigeria, the type of business for which their licenses were issued for a continuous period of 6 months ; (b) failed to fulfil or comply with the conditions subject to which their licences were granted ; or (c) failed to comply with the obligations imposed upon them by the Central Bank of Nigeria in accordance with the provisions of Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act (BOFIA) 2020, Act No. 5.

“NOW THEREFORE, I, Godwin Ifeanyi Emefiele, CON, Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, in exercise of the powers conferred on the Central Bank of Nigeria under Section 12 of BOFIA 2020, Act No.5, hereby revoke the licences of the Microfinance Banks, Finance Companies and Primary Mortgage Banks stated in Schedules I, II and III respectively attached hereto.
