Nice one. I totally support this. Imagine situation where only one individual will keep people waiting on ATM queue because he is withdrawing over 150k and holding 2 or more cards like someone going to buy cow in the hinterlands. The truth is you don't really need more than 5k cash in the wallet at any given time because everything can be paid for online or card transaction. Some people actually need such amounts. A lot of Architects, builders, civil engineers, etc need such amounts to pay their workers after the days work. Some of us do jobs in the villages where banks are far from us, how do you pay these workers if not using the nearest POS to withdraw such amounts? A situation you've like 12 labourers on site of which 4 would've bank accounts & others do not cos most of them are not educated, they can't even write their names or operate ATMs. This CBN policy will affect project delivery. 14 Likes 1 Share |

People will simply keep alot of cash at home, and there would be too much money in circulation. The policy doesn't make any sense to be honest.
200 or less denominations is more than ok to discourage heavy withdrawal. If I want to withdraw anything above 10k, I rarely patronize #500 ATM, let alone 200 or less. am telling I always make sure I use 1000ATM ... Thinking of 20k withdrawal in 200 denomination....omo I can't...I hate such notes 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Good move by Emefoole. He has been getting some things right of recent. The naira redesign would be a grand futile venture if they don't use the opportunity of this reset to really enforce the cashless policy.
However, for a start, as things are right now, daily withdrawal at ATMs should be 50k limit. They can reduce it only after a while.
Also, all those stamp duty, ATM maintenance charges, ETL must go, at least at this early stages. If they want swift acceptance of cashless, make it easy, enticing and remove those costs/charges. |

POS guys will have to think out of the box.... For example if I want to withdraw 100k from POS instead of using ATM card I will transfer to the POS person who will include charge. However the challenge they will have is sourcing for cash with the new bank withdrawal charges I suspect POS charges per withdrawal will have to increase.
The real difficulty lies in going to the market. If you want to pay a market woman who is not enlightened above 20k how you go fit do am? or someone travel to a village where there's no network for an occasion that requires a lot of spendings,how will such person source for money in situation like dat, 5 Likes 1 Share |

But you can do a transfer from you phone.
Let’s look at the big picture, there is no policy implemented that will satisfy everyone in the Country.
This one will help sap lucrativeness out of kidnapping because the only means of them receiving their high demands will be through a transfer which can be traced later.
This policy is good, especially in Nigeria and will help fight corruption, yes there will be little inconveniences as you indicated, but look at the bright side…….you now have one more reason to give to your dates why you can’t spend BIG on your date nights! 1 Like 2 Shares |

It won't affect them much.
The vast majority of POS transactions are under 10k. It will affect them a lot. Check the reason why people do transaction with POS agents. One of them is unavailability of cash in ATM machines. 1 Like 1 Share |

They will not as far as it does not affect electronic fransfer.
The implication of this policy is that, there would be too much money in circulation as people won't take their cash to the banks anymore. They would rather keep cash at home having known that they may unable to withdraw a certain amount if there is need for it. POS guys too will keep alot of cash instead of taking them to bank.
#200 or less denominations at ATM is more than enough to discourage heavy withdrawal. The policy will do more harm than good. There won't be too much cash in circulation as anyone having this old currency notes is same as not having money, getting the new note out as cash will be more cumbersome Where will the heavy cash come from 8 Likes |
