The Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System (NIBSS) has ordered banks in the country to take down every non-deposit-taking financial institution from their NIP fund transfer channels.
This directive was contained in a circular dated December 5, 2023, with Ref: NIBSS/BD/NI/PO/005/051223 to banks.
The NIBSS noted that having these non-deposit-taking financial institutions such as Switching Companies, Payment Solution Service Providers, and Super Agents as beneficiary institutions on the bank’s NIP funds transfer channels contravenes the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) guidelines on electronic payment.
The directive cautioned that while switches, PSSPs, and SAs may process outward transfers as inflows to banks, they “are not to receive inflows as their licences do not permit them to hold customers’ funds.”
