I officially declare my interest in the trade policies of Nigeria and ECOWAS, especially as they concern trade within ECOWAS. This means that I will be having posts on trade on the blog pretty soon. To celebrate my declaration I am drawing attention to a product just newly introduced by Ecobank. The bank has introduced a multi-currency account that can be operated from any of Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea Bissau, Guinea, Cote d’Ivoire, Cameroun, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Togo, Mali, Niger and Benin. What this means is that one can withdraw money from an Ecobank Nigeria account from say a Liberia Ecobank, in the local currency. Yesterday I drew the attention of one of my friends here in Cotonou to it. When I saw him today he told me that he had gone to reactivate his Ecobank account.
