Faith Of Our Naira Would Be Reviewed As MPC Holds Its Meeting Today by benebaby77: 7:00am On Jan 19, 2015
The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) will
hold its two-day Meeting on Monday and Tuesday
January 19 and 20, 2015.
The major highlights of the Meeting are likely
going to be:

• Retain Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) at 13%
leaving the +/-200 basis points
corridor: Further upward review is likely to
undermine the CBN’s stated wish
of increased lending to the private sector.

• Retain the Cash Reserve Requirement (CRR) on
private and public sector funds
at 20%and 75% respectively: Market liquidity
concerns are likely to be tempered
by frequent CBN interventions, particularly
issuance of Open Market Operation
(OMO) bills. We however anticipate the apex bank
may extensively discuss rising
dollarization of deposits in the banking system.

• Hold the Net Trading Position Limit at 0.1%: This
will further help support
the value of the Naira.
• Leave Liquidity Ratio unchanged at 30%.

• Maintain official naira exchange rate at a mid-
point of N168/$ around the
±5% corridor.
Kindly find attached the Pre-MPC Communiqué.
