Casa de câmbio autorizada a exercer actividade de remessa de valores — Angola

The Angola category mapped to cross-border remittance.

Regulator: Banco Nacional de Angola.

The BNA « Instituições Financeiras Autorizadas » register publishes a dedicated section « Casas de Câmbio autorizadas a exercer actividade de remessa de valores » - exchange bureaux specifically authorized for the remittance-of-value activity (money remittance), hence REMITTANCE_XBORDER (single-mapped). These entities also appear in the plain « Casas de Câmbio » section (FX-change only, out of the 4-activity universe); only this remittance-authorized subset is ingested. A remittance-authorized casa de câmbio must hold the Remessa capital floor (Aviso 04/2024 art. 3.2, D1).
