Comparison to Yesterday’s Rate: The Naira continues to depreciate against the dollar. 

The Nigerian Naira continues to lose value against the US Dollar. On Friday, at the investor’s and exporters’ window, the naira closed the week at ₦1339.23/$1. The naira’s depreciation started on Tuesday. The naira closed the day at a troubling exchange rate of ₦1,300 to $1, a 66% depreciation in the value of the Naira within a single day.

The Central Bank of Nigeria has tried to curb this trend by selling more dollars to Bureau De Change operators (BDCs). The aim is to increase the supply of dollars in the market and possibly strengthen the Naira. However, the Naira has continued to lose value. While the total daily volume of dollars traded has increased compared to the beginning of the week, the overall trend remains concerning.
