Market Highlights
The gap between the official and parallel market rates remains narrower than in previous months. This trend suggests improved liquidity in the formal market. However, demand in the informal segment continues to support a premium for foreign currencies.
The naira’s performance remains closely tied to foreign exchange inflows, crude oil earnings, and interventions by the Central Bank of Nigeria. As a result, market participants are watching for policy updates and external reserve movements.
Analysts expect the naira to remain range-bound in the near term, unless there is a major shift in oil prices, external reserves, or monetary policy direction.
