CBN Asks Banks to Invest More in Cybersecurity to Safeguard Depositors

Dr. Adetona Adedeji, acting director of Banking Supervision, made this call during a panel discussion on “Fiscal and Monetary Policy Reforms: Removing Barriers to Private Sector Investment” at the ongoing Nigeria Economic Summit in Abuja.

“There has been a lot of innovation in the banking sector today, especially in e-channels,” Dr. Adedeji stated. “Therefore, we require a robust risk management system. We expect every bank to implement a very strong cybersecurity framework.”
