Speaking during the meeting on June 22, 2023, the Bank’s Acting Governor, Mr. Folashodun Shonubi, reiterated the commitment of the CBN to continually partner with BMGF and other development partners to explore innovative solutions for driving access to finance.
Mr. Shonubi, who was accompanied by the Deputy Governor, Financial System Stability (FSS), Mrs. Aishah Ahmad, disclosed that though much progress had been made in various aspects of financial inclusion, some challenges still remained in attaining the desired level of financial inclusion in Nigeria. He, therefore, called for greater partnership between the Bank and the BMGF.
