The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has approved a pivotal financial accommodation to support the proposed merger between Unity Bank Plc and Providus Bank Limited. Hakama Sidi Ali, CBN’s acting Director of Corporate Communications, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.

According to the apex bank, the approval is designed to bolster the stability of Nigeria’s financial system and avert potential systemic risks. 'The merger is contingent upon the financial support from the CBN. The fund will be instrumental in addressing Unity Bank’s total obligations to the Central Bank and other stakeholders. It is unequivocal to state that the CBN’s action is by the provisions of Section 42 of the CBN Act, 2007.

'Furthermore, it is important to emphasise that no Nigerian bank currently faces a precarious situation comparable to that of Heritage Bank, which was recently liquidated. 'The CBN remains committed to safeguarding depositors' interests and ensuring the smooth functioning of the banking sector through proactive measures and strategic interventions.
