Instruction - Data Center for the Financial Inclusion Account (FIA)
The Central Bank of São Tomé and Príncipe mandates the establishment of a Data Center to enable banks to verify that clients hold only one Financial Inclusion Account (FIA). Banks are required to report FIA-related information daily via the BCstpnet platform's FIA subsystem in compliance with NAP 04/2025. Failure to comply with these reporting obligations subjects institutions to supervisory sanctions under the applicable penalty framework, effective immediately.
