Stanbic IBTC Bureau De Change Limited (SIBDC), a subsidiary of Stanbic IBTC Holdings Plc, announced that it has relinquished its operating license in conducting its Bureau de Change operations with effect from January 1, 2021.
This is according to a disclosure signed by the bank’s Secretary, Chidi Okezie, and sent to the Nigerian Stock Exchange market.
According to the notice, the need to discontinue its operations became imperative given changes in regulations, which now affords customers the opportunity to purchase foreign exchange (PTA and BTA) directly from Stanbic IBTC bank at any of its branches nationwide.
Stanbic IBTC Bureau de Change (SIBDC), a subsidiary of Stanbic IBTC Bank, was incorporated in December 2012 and licensed to commence operations on 17 April 2014, after fulfilling pre-requisite conditions set by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
Until the revocation of its license, Stanbic IBTC Bureau de Change was a member of the Association of Bureau de Change Operators of Nigeria (ABCON).
