Disclaimer CBN Deputy Gov Disowns Fake e-mail Address CBN Deputy Gov Disowns Fake e-mail Address The attention of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has been drawn to the activities of fraudsters impersonating some principal officers of the Bank in an attempt to defraud unsuspecting members of the public. Of particular concern to the Bank is the recent message sent from an e-mail purportedly belonging to the Deputy Governor, Corporate Services, Mr. Edward Lametek Adamu, transacting a phony business deal. We wish to inform all members of the public, particularly members of the social media community that officials of the CBN do not communicate with emails outside the @cbn.gov.ng domain.

IASB consults on the accounting for financial instruments with characteristics of equity

The International Accounting Standards Board (Board) today has published for public comment a  Discussion Paper  on how companies issuing financial instruments should classify them in their financial statements.
