As part of efforts to deepen partnerships with development finance institutions (DFIs) and strengthen the nation’s banking sector, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on Wednesday hosted a high-level delegation from British International Investment (BII).
CBN Governor Olayemi Cardoso said the bank remains committed to financial sector reforms, including a data-driven regulatory framework and credible monetary policies aimed at ensuring banking stability and promoting long-term investment.
According to a statement issued by the apex bank, the discussions focused on opportunities for patient capital to support financial inclusion, enhance banking system resilience and foster sustainable private-sector growth.
Cardoso stressed that DFIs like BII are key partners in achieving these goals. BII reaffirmed continued interest in Nigeria’s financial services sector, emphasising the importance of regulatory clarity and sustained engagement to support investment and inclusive growth.
