Dottore: Not at all. They formulate forex policy based on their ability to manipulate the system. This government is round tripping and cashing out big time. They have used the last five years to accumulate huge reserves of dollars and I think they hope to continue until it's time for the next election. They are hell bent on wrecking the national economy as well as that of those people they don't mind to see starve to death. 5 Likes |

This is both good news and bad. Good news is dollar scarcity will reduce and add more value to the Naira. Bad news, With the high level of terrorism especially in the north, this could be a quick way to buy weapons from outside countries without any banking trace, as the dollar will be plenty in the hands of BDC I don't know whether to celebrate or feel bad, only time will tell, I don't trust this government 10 Likes |

bigtt76:I beg to differ with your points. Remitting in Naira was causing undue strain on the local currency. BDCs are known to create artificial scarcity of the dollar. When you have too much Naira chasing the Dollar it is bound to become expensive, but when you open the gates and led the dollars flood in it creates a more free forex market. There's a possibility of closing the gap in the different exchange windows (CBN and black market), all things being equal. I think that was the intention. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

bigtt76: Except that persons receiving USD would also need to buy things, pay for stuff and generally continue living which is what majority of diaspora remittances are for. So when the son sends money to the Mum, the Mum cannot afford to keep it under the bed or in a dom accounts as she has to live, buy food, pay rent, transport and pay for medicals. At that point, there would also be more USD looking for avenues to be changed to Naira. Hopefully, that will drive the exchange rate down. Do not also forget that at this yuletide period, as more diasporas come home, they'd also need to change the USD to Naira to pay for hotels. And if hotels will have lower rates than BDC/Black Market too. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

I am not an economist but I feel that Naira will become valueless in the nearest future and unemployment will become worse. It appears that the government, through this policy has abandoned the hard work of proping up the economy through increased productivity but banking on foreign remittances to help the economy. Dollarisation of the economy will be the order of the day. One would expect that the naira should become more valuable since there will be more dollars in the economy but preference to hold dollar over the naira and even trade with it internally will drive the naira value down unless the FG ban dollar as medium of exchange internally. The cost of goods will skyrocket in naira value with devalued naira. The inducement for foreign remittances will be lost and sending money home may become less attractive. 8 Likes |

Just yesterday, someone transferred some Amou nt to my account, after receiving the alert, I then got a msg from my bank that the sum exceeded CBN limit for bla bla bla. Now the money transferred to me is not captured on my balance, but its captured on my ledger balance ( so said the bank). Pls does anyone have an idea what's wrong? 1 Like 1 Share |

They CBN have ulterior motives afterwards to say non availability of dollars to pay the receiver prompt Nigeria's failure. This tactic is what Nigeria's economists believe as one of the ways that can help recover from recession |

bigtt76: Not exactly. There was an earlier memo sent to banks that outlined ways in which dollar inflows can be spent (utilized) by account holders. The summary is that inflows from offshore accounts should not be withdrawn, rather, be sold to banks at inter bank rates. Account holders can use their monies to fund international payments and the likes. Inflows via local deposits (over the counter dollar deposits) even have more limitations. They will be limited as to how they can spend such monies on international payments. The overarching resolve is that CBN wants even tighter control on the available FX in the market. When dollar inflows are sent to Nigerian accounts via services like worldRemit, Western Union etc. The conversion to naira is handled by third parties not directly affiliated with the CBN. TransferWise used a company called DusuPay the few times I've used them. This new directive means that instead of remitting naira to banks. These third parties remit USD providing much more USD in circulation to the banks and in extension the CBN. 11 Likes 1 Share |

the brief respite Nigerians are enjoying now with the rate of exchange wont last , cbn timed their intervention towards December which usually attracts low fx rates because of those coming back home for celebrations , once the festive season is over and ppl start going back to their bases , then the rate will start going up again , by then i don't think it will stop or pause at 500 to a dollar |

I agree with your points absolutely, it would help drive down the exchange rates but it's also dependent on the equilibrium between the foreign reserve and the in flows. Mind you, the IMTOs are not flying in the forex to be disbursed (it would increase the wait time if the banks have to defend on this) so what they do is get from CBN and fulfill the demands locally at a cost to CBN. I still don't see the need paying out the dollars locally or even allocating to the BDCs. I don't know of any country that does this though ![]() Rather what the CBN would've done if they wish to allow dollar cash outs, mandate that the cash outs is done through the BDCs (they are the regulated black marketers of our time) who will in turn, either return it back to their bank accounts or sell to businesses. The money changer out there won't resell at a loss, so where's the gain? Akainzo: |
