Nigeria has drastically reduced the amount of cash individuals and businesses can withdraw as it attempts to push its “cash-less Nigeria” policy and increase the use of the eNaira — Nigeria’s Central Bank Digital Currency .the directive to financial businesses in a Dec. 6 circular, noting that individuals and businesses would now be limited to withdrawing $45 per day and $225 per week from ATMs.
Individuals and businesses will also be limited to withdrawing $225 and $1,125 respectively at banks per week, with individuals hit with a 5% fee and businesses with a 10% fee for amounts above those limits. The maximum cash withdrawal via point-of-sale terminals is also capped at $45 per day. Announcing the changes the Director of Banking Supervision Haruna Mustafa noted:The limits are cumulative limits for each withdrawal, so an individual withdrawing $45 from an ATM who then tries to withdraw cash from a bank on the same day would be hit with the 5% service fee.
The previous limits on daily cash withdrawals prior to the announcement were $338 for individuals and $1,128 for businesses.
