The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has introduced stringent punitive measures against Deposit Money Banks (DMBs) and accredited cheque printers that incorporate unauthorized features into cheque books. Under the new regulatory framework, any institution found in violation of the prescribed Nigerian Cheque Standards (NCS) and Nigerian Cheque Printers Accreditation Scheme (NICPAS) will face a fine of ₦10 million.

The directive, communicated through a circular to all DMBs, mobile money operators, and other financial institutions, underscores the apex bank’s commitment to maintaining the integrity of the Nigerian Clearing System. The CBN stated that the measure is necessary to prevent the infiltration of the financial system with non-compliant payment instruments that could compromise security and automated processing.

According to the CBN, the ₦10 million penalty applies to both the financial institution that issues the non-compliant cheque and the accredited printer responsible for the production. The apex bank emphasized that all cheques must strictly adhere to the security features, dimensions, and Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) technical specifications outlined in the latest version of the NCS.
