Since 2010 I have never been able to get PTA to fund treatment in India from my bank. I'm always told they don't have. In 2015, I went with my card and was nearly disgraced when it stopped working. Apparently the policy changed while we were away! I'm due to go back later this year and this report is good news. My prayer now is that I get access to this rate.

forget what you read on the news. someone I know ran to the bank to source for dollars few weeks ago...pta purpose actually for her to travel abroad. the bank kept playing her telling her no dollars at the moment, she kept going at it for a while until she got frustrated and bought from the black market. This news is just for formality sake, there is no forex anywhere for individuals either pta or whatever except you and the bank manager are in good terms

Baba.
even if you manage to secure some , the bank managers will re-negotiate the rate again for customers. That will make the rate high.

CBN GOVERNOR is just so dominated by ignorance.

You give banks the mandate to sell to BDC operators at 385 and to sell at 375 for tuition purpose, who d hell do you think those selfish banks would want to sell to?

Even when it was 199 (God bless Gej for this rate), those selfish banks would make make you que like forever before they could honour your form A transaction, how much more now.

Balderdash.

martineverest:
those paying tuition fees abroad normally source for dollars demselves during dis recession,unlike before.they usually get dollars at black market rate of 500 naira per dollar.....but it has been reduced to 375 when using PTA

No. Tuition fee gets charge at a rate not as expensive as this before.

May be God will get angry and delay the recovery. People are just posting insults on the economy. The people who caused it are riding easy since they are out of power. Some idiots would write that is the FG floats the Naira (with plenty of good English that suggests good intelligence), however if the FG floats Naira they will experience the cry of hunger from their children within two months . I have been told it is a terrible sight to watch your children cry in hunger.

If you don't have answers or ideas please don't post RUBBISH on the economy. No body has the answer. The important thing is that there is no "sufferless solution"
If you believe there is a magic solution without pain you are actually an idiot ..And like I said may you not experience children crying out in hunger.

How many times has the CBN clash with the FINANCE minister on policies, bank rates and otherwise? Where is the coordination? The chairman of Economic Management Team( Osibanjo) why does he keep consulting with a separate private economic Think Tank group....these people are TOUTS

bureau de change sells dollars at that same rate. does this mean that CBN is now competiting with bdc for the same buyer?

coz this move may make bdc owners to increase the rate at which they sell

Is there a daily limit on how many $ you can buy from BDC?

No. The issue is the price increased. It was 318 before for school fees even at few weeks ago.

Now it's 375.

another indirect/partial devaluation. at least thats what it looks like. they want to close the gap with parallel market. grin

That is the problem. Parallel market would never allow that closure. They would increase the gap likewise to continue their sham profit. We are definitely in trouble!

FG and CBN are playing into their hands. But I wont call it sham profit. It is just like cost of land in Lagos vs Kaduna, demand and supply are the chief determining factors.
If CBN cant provide enough or near enough forex, parallel market would continue to thrive.
