Naira Among Worst-performing Currencies – World Bank Reports

The Nigerian naira has been identified as one of the least-performing currencies in Sub-Saharan Africa for 2024.

Naija News understands that by August 2024, the naira had experienced a depreciation of around 43% year-to-date, placing it among the weakest currencies, alongside the Ethiopian birr and the South Sudanese pound.

This decline is largely due to a heightened demand for U.S. dollars in Nigeria’s parallel market, coupled with limited dollar inflows and sluggish foreign exchange allocations from the central bank.

The report indicates that financial institutions, non-financial end-users, and money managers driving the demand for dollars have further strained the naira.

Despite Nigeria’s efforts to reform its foreign exchange market, including the liberalization of the official exchange rate in June 2023, these measures have not been adequate to stabilize the currency.

Wider economic issues, such as dwindling foreign reserves and inflationary pressures, have intensified the naira’s challenges.
