Additionally, the interest rate AMCON is shouldering on its bond to the CBN is making it difficult for the recovery rate to grow.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no easy way to recover money, no easy way. It is always difficult for both sides. One doing a hard job and the other responding to a hard situation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us not forget that these loans have remained uncollected for minimum of 10-15 years. However, we have responsibility to collect and shall continue to pursue them within the purview of the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Uba Sani, chairman of the senate committee on banking insurance and other financial institutions, said the senate would push and ensure that both the Nigerian Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) collaborate and contribute more to support AMCON\u2019s debt recovery activities.<\/p>\n<p>The senate in April 2021 passed the AMCON amendment bill\u00a0to strengthen the agency in the area of loan recovery.<\/p>\n<p>The amendment bill empowers AMCON to, amongst others, take possession, manage or sell all properties traced to debtors, whether or not such assets or property is used as security\/collateral for obtaining the loan in particular.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) has announced that it has recovered N1.48 trillion out of the N4.158 trillion from bank debtors.
