Directive No. 06/DMA/DSP/2021 on Procedures for Central Government Balance Movements in National Currency
The National Bank of Angola’s Assets Markets and Payments Systems Departments issued Directive No. 06/2021 to establish specific “Central Government” sub-accounts within the Real-Time Payments System for 100% of monthly central government balances held by banking financial institutions. Banking institutions are authorized to freely manage these sub-accounts without prior approval, provided they report resource withdrawals via designated email addresses. The directive resolves interpretative ambiguities under the authority of the National Bank of Angola and takes immediate effect.
