CBN Takes Control of 3 Banks to Uphold Financial Integrity

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) took firm action yesterday, dissolving the boards and management of three banks – Union, Keystone, and Polaris – due to serious infractions. These included regulatory non-compliance, corporate governance failures, and even activities jeopardizing financial stability.

This decisive move shouldn't cause depositors concern. The CBN assures everyone that funds remain safe and secure, and their commitment to a robust financial system in Nigeria remains unwavering. Our banking system, they emphasize, is both strong and resilient.
