Naira strengthens against dollar at parallel market

September 1, 2020 by Don Saint 0 Comments

The naira has strengthened at the parallel market to N448 against the dollar after the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) announced that it would resume dollar sales to bureau de change operators.

Before the announcement, the naira had been trading as low as N480 against the dollar.

Upon resumption, the apex bank said BDCs must not exchange the naira at more than N386/$ to end-users.

The CBN said its decision to resume FX sales to BDCs is to enhance accessibility to forex “particularly to travellers” since the resumption date for international flights has been announced.
