The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has issued an exposure draft for the digital financial services awareness guidelines to address gaps in consumer knowledge and practices with Digital Financial Services (DFS).

This was disclosed by the CBN in a circular titled “Digital financial services awareness guidelines”.

According to the CBN, the rules establish a set of principles and expectations for financial service providers to incorporate in the provision of DFS in order to promote consumer knowledge, good treatment, and positive outcomes.

What the CBN is saying

CBN stated that “DFS have the potential to expand access to financial services for the Nigerian population and spur innovation in the financial services industry.

“The guidelines provide for a set of principles and expectations for financial service providers to integrate in the provision of DFS to ensure consumer understanding, good treatment, and positive outcomes.”

It stated that the provisions of the guidelines would apply to institutions providing DFS including Deposit Money Banks, merchant banks, Other Financial Institutions, Payment Service Banks, and other payment service institutions as licensed by the CBN.

The CBN listed the objectives of the guidelines which include, “

  • Digital financial literacy standards for digital financial services providers;
  • to align product development, promotion, and consumer awareness to DFS among DFSP;
  • To enhance transparency and proper disclosure on DFS;
  • To provide for the development of financial literacy and consumer education materials on DFS;
  • To ensure evidence-driven DFL approach;
  • Integrate DFL in existing financial education programmes;
  • To drive targeted DFL approach to the underserved population; and
  • To provide standard for the promotion of DFL.”

The apex bank stated that DFSs must promote DFS awareness and education, give information that allows customers to differentiate DFS products from traditional banking goods and services, and ensure easy access to information on all product offers so that consumers may make educated decisions.

Furthermore, part of the responsibility is providing product information in simple English and local languages, doing outreach to underprivileged communities about DFS alternatives accessible to them, and providing information on product usage and how to obtain support services when needed.

    Whilst we commend government effort and anticipate this wholistic guidelines, i’ll however like to know how the CBN intends to regulate the affairs and activities of blockchain payment services providers as an inclusive discussion.

    Rentolog Technology Ltd Latest product:
    Rentolog electric water technology had been analyzed and found worthy for consumer taste. We give thanks to God who made this innovation possible.
    HOW DO IT WORK?
    When water is supplied to the tank, the water flows into a region, the region is blocked by an arc as in your conventional dam, the pressure of the water will increase, the arc opens and the pressure reduces. According to Bernoulli principle, the lower the pressure increases the speed of the fluid(water) and higher the pressure, the speed (velocity) reduces. The water speed is maintained by Pascal principle, which states the fluid at a point or region is evenly distributed . The flow to a region of empty space , gravity and magnetic field of the magnet pull it towards the turbine as in the mountain fall But for an effective precision the entrance to the turbine region will be small just like in the spark plug in Internal combustion engine. The reason is for the water to concentrate in the blade of the turbine for turning purposes . As the water turns the turbine , Faraday law of magnetic field will occur, the turning of the turbine blade will convert the circular motion to reciprocating motion. A small electric current will be supplied to the coil and the rotor which strengthens the electricity and supplies it to the battery, and your home. The water will flow back to the tank passing through the non return valve to continue the thermodynamic flow equation. This process conserves energy and requires minimum electricity to operate and also it is efficient. The body of the RET system is made of an insulator to prevent escape of electricity .
