Shuter who was speaking at a telecoms conference in Cape Town, South Africa, said MTN will apply for banking licence in December and should launch the mobile banking service in second quarter 2019.

“We will be applying for a payment service banking licence in Nigeria in the next month or so,” Shuter said.

“And if all goes according to plan, we will also be launching mobile money in Nigeria probably around Q2 of 2019.”

The banking licence is for a Payment Service Bank (PSB), which is an offshoot of the initiative of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to drive financial inclusion in the country.

Last week, while speaking at the 10th-anniversary conference of Enhancing Financial Innovation and Access (EFInA), Godwin Emefiele, the CBN governor, said the new banking licences were to ensure 80 percent financial inclusion by 2020.
