FCMB hits CBN's recapitalisation target
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that FCMB had met the CBN's capital requirements, securing its national banking licence.
The move allows the lender to retain its national banking licence and continue full domestic operations as the industry-wide recapitalisation deadline draws closer. The development comes amid fresh confirmation from the CBN that 20 deposit money banks have already achieved compliance under the ongoing banking sector recapitalisation programme.
The update was disclosed on Thursday by the Deputy Governor, Economic Policy, Central Bank of Nigeria, Dr Muhammad Abdullahi, at the launch of the Nigerian Economic Summit Group’s 2026 Macroeconomic Outlook in Lagos. According to Abdullahi, the number of compliant banks has risen from 16, as earlier announced by CBN Governor Olayemi Cardoso at the final Monetary Policy Committee meeting of 2025.
