EKO HOT BLOG reports that in the black market, also known as the parallel market, the dollar is trading at higher levels compared to the official rate provided by the Central Bank of Nigeria. Currency dealers in major exchange hubs across the country reported a slight variation between buying and selling rates as demand for foreign currency remains strong.
| Dollar to Naira (USD to NGN) | Exchange Rate |
|---|---|
| Black Market Buying Rate | ₦1420 |
| Black Market Selling Rate | ₦1440 |
| CBN Highest Rate | ₦1374 |
| CBN Lowest Rate | ₦1362 |
The Central Bank of Nigeria continues to manage the official foreign exchange window while implementing policies aimed at stabilizing the local currency. However, the gap between the official market and the parallel market remains noticeable, reflecting ongoing pressure in the foreign exchange market.
Economic analysts say fluctuations in the exchange rate are influenced by several factors including demand for foreign currency, import activities, diaspora remittances, and monetary policy decisions by the apex bank. Businesses that rely on imports often monitor the dollar rate closely as it directly affects the cost of goods and services in the country.

For Nigerians involved in international trade, online payments, and foreign transactions, staying updated on the latest dollar to naira exchange rate is essential for planning financial decisions.
