NDIC Announces New Minimum Account Balance for Customers To Get Refund if a Bank Fails.


The Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) has announced an increase in the deposit insurance coverage for all licensed deposit-taking financial institutions. Deposit insurance coverage guarantees that an account holder's money at a financial institution is safe up to a certain amount.


If a financial institution fails or goes bankrupt, this coverage ensures that depositors will be reimbursed.


New bank deposit minimum requirement

Announcing the changes, Bello Hassan, the NDIC Managing Director/Chief Executive, informed journalists in Abuja on Thursday, April 5, 2024, that the changes apply to Deposit Money Banks (DMBs), Microfinance Banks (MFBs), Primary Mortgage Banks (PMBs), Payment Service Banks (PSBs), and Mobile Money Operators (MMOs). He explained that the increase ensured that depositors are better protected in the unlikely event of a bank failure.


Hassan also stressed that the increased deposit insurance coverage levels will take effect immediately, offering Nigerians greater peace of mind when saving their money with licensed financial institutions, Punch reports. He added: "The move is expected to strengthen the banking system and encourage further financial inclusion within the country."
