CIBN backs CBN on banking reforms

The Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria, CIBN, has hailed the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, for the recent reforms in some banks.

DAILY POST recalls that the apex bank, on January 10, dissolved the boards and management of Union, Polaris, Keystone and Titan Trust banks due to their non-compliance with the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act, 2020.
