According to the Statista, the digital banks market in Nigeria is projected to grow exponentially, resulting in an estimated market volume of US$0.85bn by2029.

​

With the rising digital transformation comes expanded opportunities for fraud, despite the many benefits it brings. As banks offer more digital services like mobile banking, online payments, and e-wallets, the number of entry points for cybercriminals increases. Each new channel presents a potential vulnerability that fraudsters can exploit.

​

Nigerian banks must continuously update their cybersecurity measures, and invest in advanced fraud detection technologies by partnering with the right service providers. By adopting a multifaceted approach, integrating technology, education, and collaboration, these institutions can not only safeguard their interests but also ensure that merchants are equipped to fight the ever-evolving threats of the digital age.
