The people accountable for your money, with their names on it
The Board of Directors of CitadeleCapitals Microfinance Bank. Biographies and qualifications — the disclosure a bank owes you, as a page rather than an attachment.
Governance
The Board sets the direction. Management runs the bank.
Our governance framework promotes accountability, transparency and effective oversight.
The Board of Directors sets the Bank’s strategic direction and oversees risk, compliance and internal controls; Executive Management, led by the Managing Director, runs day-to-day operations. We operate in compliance with applicable Nigerian laws and regulations, including AML/CFT controls, KYC requirements and data protection standards. Concerns about conduct can be raised in confidence under our whistleblowing policy.
