Capital importation dropped to $1.2bn in Q3 2024, says NBS

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) says it sold foreign exchange (FX) to banks worth $876.26 million at N1,495 per dollar.

According to a statement dated August 7, signed by Omolara Omotunde Duke, CBN’s director of the financial markets department, the apex bank said the auction aimed to reduce demand pressure in the FX market and promote price discovery.

The CBN said the transaction was conducted through a retail Dutch auction system (rDAS).

According to the apex bank, while bids valued at $876.26 million from 26 banks qualified, bids from six banks were disqualified.

The CBN said four banks missed the deadline and two did not provide bids in their submitted templates.

Below is the full list of successful and unsuccessful bids.
