The gap between the official market and the parallel market continues to reflect strong demand for foreign exchange outside official channels. Many businesses and individuals still rely on the black market to meet their forex needs due to limited access to foreign currency through official sources.
However, the Central Bank of Nigeria does not recognise the parallel market and has consistently advised Nigerians seeking foreign exchange transactions to use authorised financial institutions and commercial banks.
Exchange rates in the black market may vary depending on location, transaction volume and prevailing market conditions. Traders are therefore advised to confirm rates with dealers before carrying out transactions.

As foreign exchange demand remains high, analysts expect the Naira to continue responding to market forces, government policies and developments in Nigeria’s external reserves and foreign currency inflows.
