Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation
Invitation to Tender for NDIC Depositor Protection Awareness Radio and Television Jingles
Introduction
The Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) was established under NDIC Decree No. 22 of 1988 (now NDIC Act No. 16 of 2006) and mandated to insure deposit liabilities of licensed banks and such other deposit-taking financial institutions in Nigeria. However, since the NDIC commenced operations in 1989, it has been experiencing serious challenges, particularly, the low-level public awareness on its mandate and activities. It is on the basis of these developments that a continuous and sustained public enlightenment campaign on the benefits and limitations of the deposit insurance scheme in Nigeria is considered very desirable. Consequently, the Corporation hereby invites interested, reputable and competent media consultants to bid for the production and placement of the depositor protection awareness television and radio jingles.
