Pursuant to the second paragraph of Article 4 of Instruction No. 015-12/2010/RB setting the conditions for the exercise of banking operations intermediary activities, « a banking operations intermediary may conclude new mandates with other credit institutions, without requiring a new authorization, provided that it declares them to the Minister in charge of Finance, with a copy to the BCEAO ».

In application of this provision, a banking operations intermediary is required to notify the Minister in charge of Finance, with a copy to the BCEAO, at least thirty (30) business days before the date scheduled for the conclusion of a new mandate.

The declaration is filed with the Main Agency of the BCEAO in the State where the banking operations intermediary is established.

This Opinion is notified to credit institutions as well as to banking operations intermediaries and published where necessary.
