Nigerian Banks Trailing Customer Account With Crypto Trading
In Nigeria, commercial banks are monitoring accounts of individuals that are used for cryptocurrency trading. This directive is from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) demanding all commercial banks freeze accounts belonging to at least two individuals engaged in cryptocurrency trading. According to reports the memo reads as follows: “We wish to reiterate that the CBN is strictly monitoring non-compliance with the directive on the closure of all accounts involved in cryptocurrency for high impact regulatory sanction.
Because of the above, all staff are hereby advised to identify entities transacting in or operating cryptocurrency exchanges within their systems and ensure that such accounts are closed immediately.” All bank workers are required in monitoring accounts, and customers to guarantee that the bank is fully complying with CBN requirements. Employees who intentionally neglect to disclose an account’s involvement in cryptocurrency trading would be penalized. Targeted accounts include those of fintech firms with a large volume of daily transactions without a payments license or any that contain cryptocurrencies in their memorandum or expression of business. Accounts that receive a lot of money from multiple payees and make numerous payments to several beneficiaries will also be under suspicion.
