The Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation has begun paying all depositors of banks affected by the recent license revocation by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
The affected banks include 178 Microfinance Banks and four Primary Mortgage Banks, 62 of which had already stopped operations, and 74 were declared insolvent. At the same time, 12 were temporarily distressed, and the remaining six were voluntarily liquidated.
The Managing Director of NDIC, Bello Hassan, gave the assurance recently while speaking at a two-day capacity-building workshop organized in partnership with the Bureau of Public Procurement held at Four Points By Sheraton in Ikot Ekpene.
The NDIC boss was represented by the Executive Director of Operations, Mustapha Ibrahim. He said that the Corporation would not compromise on standards and would ensure that the public would not panic over the safety of bank deposits.
Punch reports that the NDIC MD revealed that the Corporation would continue to strengthen the financial system to support Nigeria’s economic advancement and contribute meaningfully to the financial system and its stability.
According to the NDIC boss, the role of the Corporation is to continue to play a critical part in the financial safety net arrangement of Nigeria’s banking system as a deposit insurer.
He said:
“Following the recent revocation of the licenses of 178 Microfinance Banks and four Primary Mortgage Banks by the Central Bank of Nigeria, the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation has since commenced the liquidation exercise with the primary purpose of paying the guaranteed sum, recovery of debts owed the banks, sale of physical assets and payment of liquidation dividend on the uninsured sum.
“The NDIC is hereby assuring depositors of the closed banks of speedy payment of their insured sums.”
