Exclusive: Central Bank of Nigeria Revokes Licenses of 4,173 Bureau de Change Operations
In a significant development, the Central Bank of Nigeria CBN has taken decisive action by withdrawing operational licenses from a staggering 4,173 Bureau de Change BDC operations across the country.
The move comes as part of the CBN's ongoing efforts to streamline the foreign exchange market and combat illicit financial activities. The affected BDCs are reportedly found to be in violation of regulatory guidelines and have failed to comply with necessary operational standards.
According to sources within the CBN, the decision to revoke these licenses was made after thorough investigations revealed various infractions, including money laundering, fraudulent transactions, and non-compliance with anti-money laundering regulations.
