Guidelines on Disposal of Non-Permissible Income

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has issued guidelines for non-interest financial institutions (NIFIs) on the disposal of non-permissible income (NPI), which includes interest income and penalties for delayed payments. NPI must be placed in a dedicated account and disposed of promptly to charitable causes, without benefiting the NIFI or its stakeholders. The CBN requires NIFIs to comply with these guidelines to avoid sanctions.
