The Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines, and Agriculture is approaching the Central Bank of Nigeria’s new guidelines on bank recapitalization with caution and analysis.

In a statement released to PUNCH Online, the association highlighted its intention to engage with stakeholders and await the full policy framework before formulating a comprehensive response. NACCIMA’s National President, Dele Oye, emphasized the importance of prudence and thorough analysis in light of the significant policy shift within the banking sector and its potential macroeconomic implications.

“We are approaching this matter with caution, prudence, and thorough analysis,” Oye stated. The association plans to consult with stakeholders and await the complete policy framework from the CBN and the government before making any definitive statements.

Acknowledging the importance of a strong banking system, Oye expressed the association’s inability to provide a comprehensive commentary without access to all the details and context surrounding the CBN’s decision. NACCIMA is committed to safeguarding the interests of private citizens and promoting the public good, refraining from offering a definitive opinion until a thorough understanding of the objectives and implications is provided by regulatory authorities.

The association remains dedicated to engaging constructively with all relevant parties to facilitate an informed discourse on this critical issue. Oye concluded by stating, “Our organization is prepared to engage with all relevant parties to ensure a nuanced and informed discussion on this important matter.”
