TransAtlanticEx: I'm genuinely curious right now. He said he was charged 0.5% transfer charge. Say he wanted to withdraw $1,000, it means he paid $500 in transfer charges? Right? Or I should go back to secondary school? |

0.5% is $5. There's VAT charged on the percentage as well. |

TotoNaRubber:All banks always charge 0.5% plus vat for dim transfers unless you have not noticed it and it’s not new. Only first bank charge 0.25% |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by TotoNaRubber: 7:43pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
Haha it would have been 419 if he was charged $500, since it was 0.5% that would be 0.5 ÷ 100 i.e. 0.005 x 1000 = $5 which is still high. I wonder which bank charges that. Grupo: 1 Like |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by chigo4u: 7:48pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
TotoNaRubber:The charges are $10 minimum and above. So for less than $2000 transfers it’s $10 plus vat fees while 0.5% applies above plus vat. This charge is fraudulent anyway and needs to be stopped by cbn 1 Like |

To my understanding, for those asking for security of investment of their investment in Stock market, Bonds and Treasury Bills Investment. Invest wisely by doing these three things. 1. Determine the amount of money you CAN NOT afford to lose no matter what happens. Invest that amount on Bonds and Treasury Bills. For Treasury Bills, when you get the upfront interest, re-invest it for compound interest. 2. Determine the amount of the savings you CAN afford to lose or risk. Invest that amount on the stock market, make sure you buy stocks with good value and your objective should be long term. 3. Invest in your personal finance know-how (Financial Literacy). Go read up Usiere Uko's "Practical Steps To Financial Freedom and Independence" and Tony Robbin's "Money; Master The Game". Read up ASSET ALLOCATION in these books as many times as you can until you understand it fully. This number 3 is the most important. Do not do anything if you have not done this. Also remember the 3ps of your business objective. Plan Price and place. ![]() Stay blessed! 21 Likes 5 Shares |

TotoNaRubber: First bank Withdrawal does not carry any charge if I'm withdrawing from the branch I opened my account. Whenever I'm withdrawing from a branch that is not the branch I opened my account, there is a charge but very minute |
Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by pizapato(m): 10:05pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
TotoNaRubber: This is the right calculation Mr Grupo. if you are withdrawing cash, no charge in your primary branch. in another branch, there is a small charge, I can't really remember the % |

What economists say will happen after devaluation.*** First, depreciation (devaluation) of currency increases the volume of exports and reduces the volume of imports, both of which have a favourable effect on the balance of trade, that is, they will lower the trade deficit or increase the trade surplus. The reality** Bloomberg) -- Nigeria’s foreign-currency shortage is squeezing the life out of Africa’s biggest economy. Banks won’t honor card payments, foreign investors can’t get their money out and manufacturers are unable to import vital raw materials as output hurtles toward a second contraction in four years. Dependent on oil exports for half of its revenue, the Nigerian government’s coffers have emptied after crude prices plunged in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. There’s little prospect of a respite any time soon: it needs oil prices of $70 per barrel and production of 2 million barrels a day to balance its budget, but prices are hovering around $40 and OPEC curbs have restricted the nation’s output to about 1.4 million barrels a day. The evaporation of foreign income forced the central bank to halt weekly interbank foreign-currency sales since March. Now the effects of the dollar shortage are seeping through to the economy. “A lot of the members can’t access the amount of dollars they need from the banks,” said Eke Ubiji, executive secretary of the Nigerian Association of Small and Medium Enterprises. “That is constraining business.” READ: Bond Investors Stranded in Nigeria Risk Taking 100% Losses The International Monetary Fund predicts Nigeria’s economy will contract by 5.4% this year, the most in four decades. The latest official job figures put the second-quarter unemployment rate at 27.1%, the highest in a decade. Inflation, meanwhile, accelerated to 12.8% in the year through July, from 12.6% the previous month, as prices of imports including food surged. Lenders including Guaranty Trust Bank Plc, Nigeria’s biggest by market value, have cut the amount of foreign currency customers can spend on payment cards abroad to $100 a month from $3,000. Rules on what companies do with the dollars they receive have also been changed, said Emeka Mgbeahuru, who runs Tropitec Ltd., an importer of agricultural equipment from Italy and China with distribution links across west and central Africa. “When you source your own dollars, they won’t let you pay in cash into your account and won’t let you transfer to your suppliers,” Mgbeahuru said by phone from the southeastern commercial hub of Onitsha. Many banks are following a template they used when they went through a similar contraction in 2016, which was to cut customers’ foreign payments and wait for crude prices to recover before raising the limits. Central Bank of Nigeria spokesman Isaac Okorafor didn’t respond to a call and messages seeking comment. “The challenge with dollar liquidity is an industry-wide problem,” said Bridget Oyefeso-Odusami, a spokeswoman of Stanbic IBTC Bank Plc, which cut its customers’ card spending to $500 monthly. The shortage of foreign currency is forcing some companies to consider closing down, said Ubiji. “If that happens, it has a ripple effect, which is loss of jobs,” he said. “We wish the situation changes for the better.” 2 Likes 1 Share |

The exchange rates will keep going up for now even when International Airport reopen on August 29, the demand of forex by Nigerians waiting to travel out of Nigeria will go up and this will push the exchange rate up. We could say the number of Nigerians coming into Nigeria to bring forex too but you can't compare the number of people trying to run away from Nigeria to the number coming in for visit, the ratio is like 1000:1. I just tried an experiment here in the UK, i used my Nigerian bank card to withdraw Pounds and they charged N630/£. I think it's only the begining of what to come. Nigsrdumb: 5 Likes |
