The Nigerian Naira experienced a notable appreciation, reaching N1,245 per dollar in the parallel market on Friday, surpassing the official and Bureau De Change’s (BDC) segments’ rates.

This development comes amid ongoing discussions between the Association of the Bureau of Change Operators of Nigeria (ABCON) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) regarding foreign exchange (FX) rate adjustments.

In the official FX market, the dollar was valued at N1,255.07 on Thursday, with the BDC segment quoting it at approximately N1,269/$1.

Contrary to online media reports suggesting a CBN rate adjustment for BDCs to N1,190 per dollar, ABCON’s national president, Aminu Gwadabe, clarified that no new changes have been implemented by the CBN.

The naira’s strength in the parallel market, often referred to as the black market, signifies a 1.20 percent increase compared to Thursday’s exchange rate of N1,260 per dollar.

This performance marks a significant recovery, with the naira appreciating by 46.58 percent since February 20, 2024, against the dollar in this market.
