    • LR-2.8.7

      Bank licensees are subject to the provisions of the CBB Law. These include the right of the CBB to impose such terms and conditions, as it may deem necessary when issuing a license, as specified in Article 45 of the pre-mentioned Law. Thus, when granting a license, the CBB specifies the regulated banking services that the licensee may undertake. Licensees must respect the scope of their license. LR-3.2 sets out the process for varying the scope of an authorisation, should a licensee wish to undertake new activities.
