Islamic Bank, Jaiz, Begins Business In 3 Branches by solaugo(m): 6:19am On Feb 16, 2012
NIGERIA’S first licensed Islamic bank, Jaiz Bank Plc, has commenced full operations of non-interest commercial banking in Nigeria from three branches in Abuja, Kaduna and Kano.

A staff of the bank, in its Abuja office, informed the Economic Confidential that most of the early customers were groups of business institutions and private individuals from different religious affiliations making enquiries, as well as opening different accounts.

The officer said the service of the bank was opened to everyone interested in the non-interest products.

The introduction of Islamic banking was part of a drive by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to propel Nigeria’s economy and promote financial inclusion by introducing alternative products.

At its inaugural annual general meeting, chairman of Jaiz Bank, Alhaji Umar Mutallab, said “this kind of banking is for all religions, because no religion wouldn’t want to help, especially funding critical project without using interest elements. Whether it is Christianity or Judaism, every community wants to borrow money without being bugged down with multi-layer interest structure.
