    The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC), Umaru Ibrahim, has called on the Senate Committee on Banking, Insurance and Other Financial Institutions to expedite action on the amendment of the NDIC Act.

    Ibrahim made the call when members of the committee paid an Oversight visit to the corporation, pointing out that only an amended Act will end the plight of depositors of Savannah Bank and other Money Deposit institutions whose depositors have not been reimbursed.

    The NDIC boss updated the Committee on the recent activities of the Corporation including the response of the Corporation to the revocation of the licences of 153 Micro-Finance Banks (MFBs) and 6 Primary Mortgage Banks (PMBs), by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

    He also informed members of the Committee that the Corporation had already commenced the payment of depositors of 25 MFBs and the deposits verification of 50 others.

    Ibrahim listed the challenges encountered by FMBs to include non-performing loans, insider credit and abuse, non-compliance with extant regulations on their establishment and the overbearing indulgence in other fringe operations, along with poor earnings

    On the issue of the long suffering depositors of Savannah Bank, Fortis MFB, Aso Savings and Union Homes, the MD/CEO expressed the view that unless the enabling Act of the Corporation was speedily amended, the Corporation was handicapped in acting to end the plight of depositors of the institutions.

    Citing the case of Savannah Bank as an example, the Ibrahim added that the NDIC Act, as presently enacted, inhibits the Corporation to reimburse depositors since their bank licences were yet to be revoked due to protracted litigation. The NDIC boss thereafter made appealed to the Committee to amend the NDIC Act.

    The NDIC boss further used the opportunity to inform members of the Committee of the strong resolve and commitment of the Corporation to assist in the investigation and prosecution of all those who contributed to the collapse of the defunct Skye Bank.

    In his reaction, the Chairman of the committee commended the Corporation for the excellent quality of its reports on the supervision of banks which, he said, have become the benchmark in the industry.

    The chairman however expressed concerns over the recent policy of the CBN which raised the minimum capital requirements for Microfinance Banks in Nigeria from N20 million to N200million, and N100 million to NI billion, and N2 billion to N5 billion for unit, state, and national MFBs respectively, adding that the policy will be inimical to the objectives of the financial inclusion strategy.

    He expressed a strong Commitment for the accelerated amendment of the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) Act, 2006, to eliminate the gaps that have hindered the full realization of the public policy objectives of the implementation of the Deposit Insurance System (DIS) in Nigeria.

    The meeting ended with both institutions pledging to work harmoniously to confront emerging issues in the industry such as Block-chain Technology, Financial Inclusion, Cyber Crime, Digital Banking, Consumer Protection and the provision of credits to MSMEs.
