Good!

I am not a fan of Buhari but sometimes, the Soviet era kind of system is what fits Nigeria and Nigerians. We keep complaining about naira falling against the dollar yet, most Nigerians, especially the middle class and the rich, keep storing their wealth in dollars. What do you expect? The pressure on naira will continue. Nigeria is not a productive economy. We import most of the things we consume and you expect the naira not to fall.

Billions of dollars are sitting in peoples domiciliary accounts doing nothing. Government is not a magician to stop the free fall of naira. It should be collective effort. Agreed that the government has a role to play in arresting the free fall of naira, the citizens are also culpable. our penchant for foreign goods knows no limit. Everything in this country is "dollarized" and the government is also contributing to this dollarization.

However, some hard measures are needed to save the situation. If nothing is being done about this free fall, dollar will hit N2000 per $ by end of next year. People are offloading their naira accounts and changing them to dollars and pay them into their domiciliary accounts. These are the things that continues to pile pressure on naira.



Who's fault is this?

How can I leave 1 million naira in the bank for one year and at the end of the year its still 1 million but the value is now 950k. And you expect to not to change my funds into a stable currency.

If the naira was dropping like it is no-one would bother saving in dollars.

Don't mind them. Many people don't read to understand. Even as glaringly misleading as the title appeared, many can't see the misleading title. We have to spoon feed them and try to explain to them it's only for physical cash deposit before they understand.

The op is to blame too. I was shocked after reading the thread and went back to look at the title.

They mean you can only make a total cumulative deposit of $10k into a Stanbic dom account a month. Not that you can’t have more than $10k in your account.

Wahala for who dey save money in Naira. My savings is in usdt so it's obviously not in my bank account meaning that Buhari and his stupid limitations don't affect me, rather it will make my earnings increase in Naira whenever the currency depreciates.

If you know you know cool


So how do you save in dollars? Do you live abroad?

Dear Customer (Name),

This is to inform you that effective Monday, 23 August 2021 the cumulative cash deposit on USD accounts will be revised to a maximum of $10,000 (USD) monthly. While you will be able to make multiple cash deposits within the month, the total cash deposit summation will be capped at $10,000 (USD) in any calendar month.

"Cumulative Cash deposit". This means you can have any amount of money in your Domiciliary Account, but you cannot deposit more than $10,000 total in a month.

Comprehension is the main issue here.

Emefiele remains the dumbest CBN gov to ever assume that office. You cant just wake up gag everyone with investors inclusive and expect people not to react. 2016 when they assumed office, they woke up one day and devalued the Naira without consulting anyone and making them aware of what was at stake. Nigerians now went ahead and started hoarding their saving in foreign currencies to save their investments. An average joe like me growing up never cared about having stash of foreign currencies aside if i was travelling abroad or a friend showed it to me, but now we are forced to hold it to hedge against the falling Naira.

Lebanon comes to mind. When Lebanon was facing serious economic crunch back in 2019,2020, the govt started putting a cap on how much you could withdraw from banks both in foreign exchange and local currencies, that ordinarily created a crisis and unstability in the economy, and Lebanon isn't what we know of it anymore. Guys you see, one of the major criterion we have to agree on in unison is that tomorrows world leaders must be well grounded in economics and money management because elections have consequences. American went about selling globalization and democracy to the whole world, but what they wont tell you about democracy is that if you elect the wrong leader to public office, you are "SCREWED".


The best way we can get out of this mess is to go back to exports, we have to produce what we can and sell for any amount of foreign exchange we can. When Nigeria was getting it right in the 60s, 70s and 80s we were exporting a shit ton of commodities and every region was doing well on it's own from Cocoa to oil palm we were doing a lot of numbers there. Buhari's main focus should have been Manufacturing and Exports, those are the 2 job creators that have proven to be of great success anywhere.



You made a lot of sense! Especially on politics and elections. I can't agree less with you that the only viable way forward is to elect leaders with proven economic acumen and financial management skills (I'd rather 'skills' than knowledge...)

But, I may have to disagree with you on the boldened...

It is almost impossible to set our own prices on our exports due to many factors. Some of these factors include, but not limited to;

1. Our weaker point in negotiations due to dependence on foreign technology in production on processing of our export products.

2. Our Balance of trade deficit. In the present circumstances, the over borrowing of government is going to put us at the mercies of both our lenders and opportunist trade partners.

3. Corruption in the high places - talk of over invoicing by persons in government who are greedy for more and more money. They over invoice imports, use their connection to government to evade tax, enjoy subsidy and rip the end consumers via over pricing.

4. Our economy is unstable! Due to political instability and the persistent wave of insecurity. A war torn zone is always a prey for economic predators! In a bid to survive, humans (including the military) often pay high prices. These instability-induced inflation will profit nations who supply survival tools like foods, medication and military hardware. In the end, the unstable nation becomes a beggar.

And you know what they say about Beggars and choices...

The Title of this thread is misleading when reviewed against the content of the memo.
They never talked about ACCOUNT BALANCE rather CUMULATIVE CASH DEPOSIT.
The memo is saying You can only pay IN CASH DEPOSIT total of usD10,000 in a month, and YOU CANNOT ONLY HAVE A MXIMUM OF USD10,000 ACCOUNT BALANCE. This instruction does not and should not affect the sitting account balance of the customer.
Please edit the title of the thread.

the reason why the people are doing what they do as it concerns naira/dollar savings is as a result of the responsibilities the govt hav neglected for years. this is the aftermath, you cannot commit a crime and when caught by the law expect not to be taken to court. the govt is paying the ultimate price for is neglect over the years

It is a sin everywhere in the world to regularly deposit/withdraw large amounts of cash. Even in America if you transfer more than $10,000 the authorities will be alerted..talk less of cash!!!!! It's called money laundering!!!! you are not allowed to bring in more than $10000 cash into or out of most countries in the world without declaring it, so where are you getting $10,000 cash every month to be depositing if not that the source of your funds is dubious? If your money is legitimate and not that you want to hide the source of the money why cant you transfer?

The only country that i know that allows you to be depositing and withdrawing large sums of cash is UAE! Anywhere else they will put your account on watch for possible money laundering!!!!

transfer what? from where to where? someone that has to always send money to business partners every month and needs to convert naira to dollar, how does he get the said dollars in his dorm acc first?

Not true. For bitcoin maybe. USDT is supposedly a very low volatility instrument. The reason why the spread in bitcoin is so high is because of the volatility, which usually hangs around 10%~15%.

Very true. I have even tried first converting it to NGN then sell NGN its still the same amount....P2p dealers are out to make money too.
Try selling USDT to naira...

Buhari is implementing the Taliban agenda in Nigeria. He loves to see poverty all around him and it pains him to see that some hated people are rich, yet he swims in affluence with money he never works for.

Very soon, he would do something about your movement from place to place. Just watch.

I've never heard of a bank imposing maximum balance one can maintain in an account, I thought it is in the other way, minimum balance. Or do they mean maximum deposit, not maximum balance? I know this an effort by the CBN to infuse the market with dollars injection so as to save the weakening Naira from further slide.

Unless I am missing something here. Is it not better that people are encouraged to deposit their U$D in the bank than having so much forex floating outside the bank? This CBN only makes rules to frustrate the lives of ordinary Nigerians and legitimate business concerns. The fraudulent ones operate outside the rules of the CBN and often get away with it.

You are wrong. What they mean is cash deposit over the counter should not exceed $10k a month.

Let's please sit back, read and understand. It said " the cumulative cash deposit on USD accounts will be revised to a maximum of $10,000 (USD) monthly" and that means that the cbn wants to discourage speculators from overheating the system, people are currently running arround buying USD and stashing in their dom account s with the hope the the naira will fall. That's the current practice that the Apex bank wants to discourage. You can receive as much as possible as foreign inflow into your dom account and have access to same.
