The Central Bank of The Gambia (CBG) is the country’s primary financial authority responsible for regulating currency, monetary policy, and the banking system. It issues the Gambian Dalasi and oversees all licensed financial institutions operating in the country. Its role is central to economic stability and currency management.

CBG supervises commercial banks, foreign exchange bureaus, and mobile money operators to ensure compliance with financial regulations. It also manages foreign reserves and sets policies that influence exchange rates and inflation. The bank works closely with international financial institutions. The Central Bank is essential for investors, financial institutions, and policymakers. While it does not offer retail services, its policies directly affect currency exchange, remittances, and financial transactions across The Gambia.
