Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube said Government will announce a Statutory Instrument to protect nostro accounts for individuals and the private sector.
Nostro account refers to an account that a bank holds in a foreign currency in another bank. Said Ncube:
Over and above the Nostro Deposit Protection Guarantee from Afreximbank, we are also reinforcing nostro foreign currency accounts with a statutory instrument to guarantee that these are private deposits and neither the Reserve Bank nor Government has any access to them.
