Olayemi Cardoso, governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has said the apex bank is working to revamp its website. The effort is tipped to make the web portal more comprehensive, and transparent and to foster accountability.
The CBN governor disclosed this during a special dinner by the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) at its 30th summit on Tuesday, 15 October in the nation’s capital.
He said the updated website will provide a more user-friendly experience and greater access to information, ultimately supporting its commitment to transparency, and accountability and building trust with its stakeholders.
The CBN website is a platform for disseminating information about the Bank’s operations, financial statistics, regulatory frameworks, and updates on monetary policy.
He said, “Information is something that we are ensuring to improve on at the Central Bank. We are bringing out activities that are closer to the people.
“We put out the information and we allowed people to have a line of sight and have an idea of where they are going and how far we expected to continue from that particular point.
“Our website is about to be significantly overhauled. Very shortly, we will see a new website. And that’s all headed in the direction of transparency and openness.”
