In an official gazette of the Federal Government of Nigeria, CBN said the microfinance banks, finance companies and primary mortgage banks stated in Schedules I, II and III respectively have ceased to carry on operations in Nigeria for the type of business their licences were issued for 6 months.
The banking regulator said some of the MfBs, Mortgage and Finance Companies failed to fulfil or comply with the conditions subject to which their licences were granted.
It added that some of the affected operators failed to comply with the obligations imposed upon them by the Central Bank of Nigeria in accordance with the provisions of the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act (BOFIA) 2020, Act No. 5.
