The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has threatened to penalize banks that compel customers to withdraw amounts lower than ₦20,000 per transaction from Automated Teller Machines (ATMs).

This was disclosed in a ‘Question and Answer’ explainer released by the apex bank on Thursday.

According to the CBN, ATM charges for withdrawals made from other banks’ ATMs, both on-site and off-site, are based on the expectation that customers can withdraw up to ₦20,000 per transaction.
