On June 4, the FIU directed all banks to limit internal transfers to just two per day. In a directive dated June 4, 2020, the FIU acting director-general, Oliver Chiperesa ordered banks to limit the number of internal transfers that can be processed inside a working day. He said in the notice: > Each bank customer shall make no more than two transactions per day by way of internal transfer regardless of the values involved. > There is no restriction on RTGS transfers but banks should exercise necessary due diligence. Chiperesa said the measures have been put in place after realising a notable increase in the abuse of the internal bank transfers facility for purposes of parallel market dealings. He said: > We have noted a trend where entities are using their bank accounts to buy foreign currency using a network of runners, some of whom have been advertising their services on social media. > These illicit transactions manifest in the form of daily multiple payments from one account to beneficiaries who hold accounts in the same bank. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
