MON 22 MARCH, 2021-theGBJournal-Attaining enough foreign exchange inflows through official sources to Stabilise the value of the domestic currency continues to underpin the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) money transfer policy.
In recent times, the apex bank has issued a raft of policies geared towards redirecting remittances through official sources as Diaspora Nigerian’s preference for the parallel market grows.
Besides, International Money Transfer Organisations and unothourised companies activities has continued to create more headaches for the CBN, prompting also several cautions.
Most of these organizations disburse Diaspora remittances in local currency (Naira) despite the CBN’s efforts to promote transparency, grow Diaspora remittances and significantly improve foreign exchange inflows into the country.
Today, the CBN republished the full list of firms it has approved, as at February 28, 2021, to undertake international money transfer into the country, in another move to reinforce the commitment to shutter illegal money transfer operators.
