Naira Appreciates At Parallel Market

November 10, 2022 by Don Saint 0 Comments

The naira, on Wednesday, appreciated against the dollar at the parallel section of the foreign exchange market amid increased liquidity.

Bureaux De Change (BDC) operators, popularly known as ‘abokis’, who spoke to TheCable in Lagos, quoted the naira at N825 to a dollar.

The figure represents a gain of N60 or 6.8 percent compared to the N885 it traded on Monday.

The traders put the buying price of the dollar at N790 and the selling price at N825, leaving a profit margin of N35.

“Dollar is coming down. It may go down to N800 soon. There is plenty of dollars in the market now for people to buy,” a BDC operator in the Victoria Island area of Lagos told TheCable.

A parallel (street/black) market is characterised by noncompliant behaviour with an institutional set of rules.
