- 1 US Dollar (USD) = ₦1,504.149
- 1 British Pound (GBP) = ₦1,879.356
- 1 Euro (EUR) = ₦1,612.014
- 1 Canadian Dollar (CAD) = ₦1,073.653
These rates reflect current trends in the foreign exchange market, driven by domestic economic conditions and global financial factors. The rates have been influenced by oil prices, investor sentiment, and central bank policies.
Economic Impact
These exchange rates affect Nigeria’s economy, impacting import costs and inflation rates. Higher rates for the dollar, pound, and euro mean Nigerians will spend more Naira for goods and services from countries using these currencies, which can increase prices for imported goods.
Government and Financial Sector Actions
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has been implementing various policies to stabilize the Naira, including adjusting interest rates, managing foreign reserves, and intervening in the forex market.
Financial experts advise businesses and individuals to stay informed about exchange rate trends and consider strategies to manage the impact of currency fluctuations.
The Naira’s current exchange rates against major currencies show the economic challenges Nigeria faces in the global financial sector. Continuous monitoring and strategic planning are essential for maintaining financial stability.
