Important Update on CBN Guidelines on Proper use of Bank Accounts
At Guaranty Trust Bank plc, we value your relationship with us and remain committed to improving your banking experience by prioritizing innovation and excellence in service delivery.

To ensure that we continue to serve you effectively and efficiently, we would like to notify you of a recent regulatory guidance from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) with regards the use of your account for banking transactions.

The CBN has mandated that all customers of financial institutions are expected to utilize their accounts within regulatory guidelines: These include the following:

- That all customers of financial institutions are expected to only use their accounts for their direct personal/company related transactions.

- That no customer of any financial institution is permitted to engage in any activity that could be perceived as international money remittance service (IMTO) or bureau de change (BDC) activities without the express approval of the CBN.

- That any customer who fails to adhere to these guidelines runs the risk of being reported not only to the CBN but subsequently to security agencies.

We would like to encourage you to be mindful of these directives when using your bank accounts and we will continue to provide updates regarding the proper use of your bank account.

For further enquiries, kindly send an email to [email protected] or call GTConnect our fully interactive self-service contact centre on 0700 GTCONNECT; 0700 482666328, 01-448 0000, 0803900 3900 or 0802900 2900.
