About this statute

This article says the law governs the organisation, management, and supervision of banks operating in Rwanda. This article defines key banking terms used in the law. This law applies to banks, banking groups, and financial holding companies, but not to investment banks regulated by Rwanda’s capital market law. The Central Bank sets bank categories based on services, legal status, and mode of operations. No one may receive deposits unless authorized under this Law; the Central Bank, deposit-taking microfinance institutions, and other Central Bank-authorized institutions are excepted.
