It's copy,copy CBN monetary policy.
They hear the US and Europe have increased interest rate and viam,they do same,not knowing the economic and monetary environment are completely different.
Same thing happened with COVID.Despite telling us our COVID rates were constantly less than 1%,the whole nation was still put on lockdown.

Has any one told them that what is happening is cash pull inflation? How can this rate ever match the loss incurred due to exchange rate? Now that the dollar is gaping up against the naira. Do they think they can fool foreign investors to displace dollar for the naira especially with the unstable government and its policy? Must they wait till its 1000 naira per dollar for them to take the right step? Now that there is a very profitable triangular arbitrage in favour of the dollar how will the CBN correct that.

Those earning in dollars even though they are lucky bunch but they still have to keep up with inflation after exchanging their dollars into naira for local consumption.

What does it mean?

The CBN wants to reduce the volume of cash in circulation. It is a way of mopping up excess cash in circulation in an attempt to force down down prices of commodities or simply put,to reduce inflation. Inflation basically, is a situation whereby too much cash/money is chasing after few goods which pushes up the prices of these goods. Therefore,to reverse this trend,the CBN will increase rates so as to encourage people to save their excess cash. This can be done in different numbers of ways - FG Bonds,Fixed deposit,Term deposit etc. When MPR is increased,interests payable to those bank customers who have FD,TD or those who buy FG Bonds increase as well.

I hope you have an idea now.

This guy should have raised this rate since na.
Infact the raise is not even close.

Ordinarily, the rate should be close to 15% but because this will affect overall lending rate that's why is wasn't raised much.

And I read in punch that it's 13.5% not 13%.

According to macroeconomics, interest rate must be higher (close) than inflation rate or else more money will.be chasing fewer goods which will lead to more inflation.
The rate should have been increased since last year.
If we are to follow the rules , the rate should be increased more but overall lending rate should made to be marginal.
Why the rate was high is because no cash was going back into the financial system hence people out a high interest on the few cash they have and money in circulation was too much,that's why u get money easily now but price of goods has increased even within a week
Assuming the rate has been increased all this while,
They would have mopped up excess cash in circulation and the inflation would have been held back.
A stability of the exchange rate will be seen now because less naira will also be available for the constant dollars.

You are valid. I go plead make we read d report and how dem each vote to arive at the new rate.

U sabi say economics in scenarios like dis no be science, e dey more like art because some of d factors dey outside ur control. For example, election go soon start and historically, e dey impact consumer and corporate spendings .now con add that to external factors like putin's way, rising crude oil price and food.

If dey are going to raise am, dem go likely consider these things but d good thing be say na temporary and mpc on its own no dey tell d full story. I get you shah. U get sense

Economic policies do not work in Nigeria, and in most poor countries.

They only work in an highly organised and honest economy. And not in a bastardised and molested economy like Nigerian.

Does.not.work.the way you have put it

Increase in interest rate means increase in the cost of borrowing
It also means people will spend less to purchase goods and services
That can lead to a cooling down of your economic growth.
I understand that emiefele wants to bring down inflation but if the nation is finding it difficult to produce.
Money will be pursuing less goods

Thank you so much.

It was becoming clearer for me until you started talking about FD and TD. cry

FD - Fixed Deposit
TD - Term Deposit.
Fixed deposit, also known as an FD, is an investment instrument offered by banks, as well as non-banking financial companies (NBFC) to their customers to help them save money. With an FD account, you can invest a sizeable amount of money at a predetermined rate of interest for a fixed period. Term Deposit is a form of fixed deposit too except that it has shorter investment period.

The CBN periodically sends what is known as Rate advisory sheet to all the Deposit Money Banks (Commercial Banks) stating all corresponding rates payable to different categories of funds invested by the banks' customers. The trick is this,if the rate is high,people will be encouraged to deposit their excess cash for save keeping and on the other hands,if the rate is low,it discourages people from investing in any of the aforementioned investment instruments.

I hope I try sha !

The economy is growing now, businesses have returned to normal, however inflation is now a problem, it's a double edged sword, there is a level of inflation that's good for economic growth, but after that level it's detrimental to growth.
This policy increase is long over due, and before the elections proper, it will be increased again due to excessive inflow of cash into the economy by these politicians.
