Framework for the Operationalisation of the Central Bank of Nigeria Non-Interest Asset-Backed Securities

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) releases a framework for the operationalization of its non-interest asset-backed securities, aimed at deepening the country's financial markets and promoting financial inclusion. The framework outlines the structure, eligibility, auction process, and attributes of the CBN Non-Interest Asset-Backed Securities (CNI-ABS). The CNI-ABS is designed as a tradable instrument with a rate determined by the returns on the underlying asset, and it qualifies as a liquid asset for eligible institutions.
