Today, there are about 25 strong and viable banks operational in Nigeria. This is unconnected to the CBN’s directive that Nigerian banks which had no solid financial backbone should be struck out. Of course, the aftermath was the merger of banks few years ago.

There are different types of banks in Nigeria. While some are licensed commercial banks for national operations, others too have been licensed by the CBN to run commercial banking services with international authorization.

That aside, we also have banks which have commercial banking license from the CBN to operate with regional authorization. The only bank in Nigeria licensed by the CBN, having non-interest banking license with national authorization is Jaiz bank.
