CBN’s Position on the Parallel Market
It is important to note the stance of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). The CBN does not officially recognise the parallel market. It has consistently advised individuals seeking foreign exchange to transact through official banking channels.
This directive encourages the use of commercial banks for all forex transactions. Such a move aims to foster transparency and stability within the country’s official currency market.
