For breaching its guidelines on lending to the real sector of the economy, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has fined 12 major banks N499.1billion. According to an approved debit instruction, the affected banks and the amount they will pay are: Citibank (N100,743,055, 321); First Bank of Nigeria (N74,668,880,480); FBNQuest Merchant Bank (N2, 697,456,144); First City Monument Bank (FCMB), (N14, 371,064, 742) and Guaranty Trust Bank (N25, 147, 933, 628). Others are Jaiz Bank (N7, 525, 165,552); Keystone Bank (N4, 162, 938, 879); Rand Merchant Bank (N2, 823,177,399); Standard Chartered Bank (N30,027,137,984); SunTrust Bank (N1,703,205,427); United Bank for Africa (N99,676,181,916) and Zenith Bank (N135,629,337,625). The banks will lose the money at source from their Cash Reserve Requirement (CRR) with the CBN. The CRR is a portion of the banks’ deposits kept with the CBN for regulatory reasons. The apex bank, on July 3, 2019, directed banks to maintain a minimum Loan Deposit Ratio (LDR) of 60 per cent by September 30, 2019. The LDR, which was being reviewed quarterly to improve lending to the real sector, was 58.5 per cent as at May. It has now been raised to 65 per cent for the last quarter of the year. A CBN circular: “Regulatory Measures to Improve Lending to the Real Sector of the Nigerian Economy,” says in order to ramp up economic growth through investment in real sector, the CBN approved that all banks should maintain a minimum LDR of 60 per cent by September 30. Based on the guidelines, failure to meet the minimum loan to deposit ratio of 60 per cent by October 1 would attract a levy of fine which is additional CRR equal to 50 per cent of the lending shortfall of the target. Central bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor Godwin Emefiele had said that banks that fail to meet its directive on the 60 per cent LDR would be penalised at the expiration of the deadline. “Failure to meet the above minimum LDR by the specified date shall result in levy or additional Cash Reserve Requirement equal to 50 per cent of the lending shortfall of the target,” CBN Director, Banking Supervision, Ahmad Abdullahi, said in the July 3 circular. The LDR policy is expected to push banks to increase lending to high risk-borrowers, with the potential of incurring heavy losses and higher non-performing loans. To encourage SMEs, retail, mortgage and consumer lending, these sectors shall be assigned a weight of 150 per cent in computing LDR for this purpose. https://www.financialwatchngr.com/2019/10/03/cbn-fine-12-banks-n499b-for-not-giving-out-loan-to-customers/ 29 Likes 5 Shares |

hard times for the banks who are working hard on one hand to ensure such loans dont go bad and on the other to meet with CBN policy on loans. Most Nigerian "busyness" men are not credit worthy. You give a business man loan and the next thing he marries another wife. Dee60: 61 Likes 3 Shares |

This policy is very troubling and not healthy for our fickle economy. I have said it before that there is something wrong with this CBN Governor, You want to force the banks to disburse money to every jack, Oga let me ask you a question? Shey when is time for repayment , you will also assist the Bank's in recouping depositors funds! Loan whey bois dey use marry, which is intended for real sector.
