The Central Bank of Nigeria will unveil two key policy documents on Friday, May 15, 2026, aimed at strengthening the country’s financial system and foreign exchange operations.
The apex bank said it will launch the Nigeria Payments System Vision 2028 and the 4th Edition of the CBN Foreign Exchange Manual at a public event in Abuja.
The ceremony starts at 9:00 a.m. and will be streamed live on the CBN’s YouTube and Facebook channels to allow wider participation from financial sector stakeholders and the public.
Payments System Vision 2028 will set out Nigeria’s strategy for digital payments, fintech innovation, electronic transactions, and payment infrastructure over the next three years.
Analysts say the plan could speed up the shift to a cashless economy and address issues such as cybersecurity, interoperability, financial inclusion, and cross-border payment efficiency.
The revised foreign exchange Manual will provide updated operational guidelines for participants in Nigeria’s foreign exchange market.
The CBN said the 4th edition reflects recent policy adjustments designed to improve transparency, liquidity, and stability in the market.
The launch comes as monetary authorities push to modernize the banking system, attract investment, and restore confidence in Nigeria’s monetary and foreign exchange frameworks.
