The Master Fee Protection Agreement is designed for use in Nigerian commercial relationships where parties need to establish secure mechanisms for protecting and managing significant fees. This agreement becomes essential in situations where advance fees, service charges, or other substantial payments need to be secured and protected, particularly in industries regulated by Nigerian banking and financial services laws. The document addresses the requirements of the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act (BOFIA) 2020 and other relevant Nigerian regulations, providing a comprehensive framework for fee protection, including detailed procedures for collection, holding, and disbursement of protected fees. It is particularly relevant in the current Nigerian business environment where secure fee protection mechanisms are increasingly important for commercial confidence and regulatory compliance.
