We must approach AMCON’s wind-down with caution – Edun - Daily Trust
- On Wednesday in Abuja, the Federal Government officially launched a new AMCON board, led by Dr. Bala Mohammed Bello, with the aim of enhancing debt recovery efforts.
- This follows concerns over AMCON's large portfolio of unrecovered debts, which requires a strengthened asset recovery strategy aligned with the government's economic reform agenda.
- Minister Wale Edun urged the board to adopt legal enforcement, restructuring, and asset sales to recover about N4.7 trillion in non-performing loans while collaborating with the CBN, judiciary, and National Assembly.
- Edun characterized the inauguration as a pivotal event aimed at strengthening the nation’s economic resilience, boosting investor trust, and transforming Nigeria’s financial institutions to achieve sustainable long-term development.
- The board's successful management and cautious wind-down of AMCON will be critical in resolving banking system challenges and supporting the federal government's economic stability goals.
