The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on Wednesday said the Net Open Position (NOP) limit of banks’ overall foreign currency assets and liabilities both on and off-balance sheet should not exceed 20 percent short or 0 percent long of shareholders’ funds unimpaired by losses using the gross aggregate method. What the fukk does this hump of weasel words mean? Nigerian journalists write like they expect their readers to be ChatGPT. Same when they're reporting legal cases: "The court finds ultra vires that the defendant garnishee'd the plaintiff's omnibus sanctis and in vino veritas in the penultimate judicial rascality, which the prosecution witness alleged was hoc est corpus meum ad nauseum which the honorable judge decided ex parte was ultra judice exetera from the originating summon under appeal hitherto" |

Let them allow us to be using our Naira cards for international transactions, reduce importation, and ban domiciliary accounts. Under 2 months, Naira will bounce back. I am sure government is afraid that people who have stolen Naira will use the opportunity of opening our Naira card to move their illicit funds abroad. This may be right but we have to win some and loose some. We can’t win on all fronts. Open the Naira card for international transactions and let those importers /students etc be able to pay online. There would be less need for applying for Dollars in/at banks or going to Abokis’ shops. I feel utilizing those I suggested would help crash prices of things and reduce inflation. 1 Like 1 Share |

skj1377:Swell, I wish we live in a sane clime, mopping out forex from the hands of individuals is really the only way forward, but what kind of policy would actualize this as forex is not govt currency and those who own the currency enjoy seeing countries currency crumble before them. IMF wants this disparity, there is little really that can be done than increasing local production. |

No amount of prophetic statements can control the value of Naira against other Foreign Currencies. Kindly read through the document below and persuade your Men of God or God of Men to read through before their next predictions about economic growth and developments. Die if you like, the Dollar will keep rising against the Naira ! People in Government must read and heed this. 1. Appreciation and depreciation of Currency is not related to race or colour. It isn't who is the President either; be he Hausa, Igbo or Yoruba. It is basically about the production of goods and services and the demand of your products in the World Market. A confused Country that produces almost next to nothing will never meet up. Policies only control your Currency, not the value of other Countries' Currencies against yours. 2. A Country where over 500 Industries died within 30 years must be stupid to complain of depreciation of her Currency. We keep killing local Industries and expect policies to make it up, it's a joke Sir ! Don't use China as an example of depreciating Currencies and strong economy. China produces and may attract more export with that strategy, unlike Nigeria that produces nothing. 3. A Country where someone made away with $2+billion simply to be shared, is already a doomed one in terms of monetary policy and value. A Country that produces a Dizeani and a Bafarawa, who spent billions to appease Demons. Those money without economic value is an economic waste and poison injected into the system. 4. A Country that favours importation over local production is doomed because it creates employment for other Countries while sacking her own Citizens. Some people are working in Michelin and Dunlop somewhere, yet we use the tyre here. Don't tell me about the principle of comparative advantage here; it's not applicable. 5. A Country that exports all raw materials without adding value to them, is shameless to talk of depreciation of her Currency, and will later re-import finished Products of those materials, is the peak of daftness. A Bag of Cocoa will go for, like N1million Naira, but when it is processed, its worth is around N7million. Even Farmers who produce the raw Cocoa can't buy the end product, Chocolate ! 6. A Country that deliberately operates a banking system which gives loans to Importers at the expense of local Industries, is doomed and should say nothing about depreciation. Most of the loans are given to Senators and Representatives not Industrialists. 7. A Country that gives loans in billions to the agric sector without monitoring and evaluation of such loan on how it gets to the real Farmers, is a sham. A Guy collected over N2 billion agric loan. He bought a Jeep, built a nice House and used the rest to import processed Pork. Meanwhile, local Pork Farmers are dying here. Is that not double tragedy, stressing Forex and at the same time killing local Industries ? 8. A Country that spends more on few privileged Politicians at the cost of the populace who are unemployed, should not talk about money depreciation. A Country that keeps paying NNPC Staff N10 billion as salaries every month, when a single drop of Petroleum Products was not processed, should shut up about depreciation of Currency. The only value-added product to the system is rising crime and criminality ! 9. A Country where it is difficult for Investors to register businesses because of the demand for bribes by Governent Officials. Right from the Airport to the Hotel; to the Ministers and to Governors, Investors will bribe. All these are part of cost of investment. A friend brought an Investor on Estate Development just for the State Commissioner for Lands to demand 30% of the investment ! To see the Governor in a State will cost you N2 million as bribe before you can be scheduled. This is a State as poor as anything. 10. A Country where the cost of travelling for treatment Abroad by Government Officials will build World Class Hospitals should not talk about Naira against Dollar parity. Money taken on that trip is part of stress on forex. Same as forex spent on Pilgrimage. Let religion Fanatics keep off me here. Without going to Mecca or Jerusalem, you can still make Heaven. Yes ! You waste forex on Pilgrimage and later talk rubbish about forex. Pilgrims get Dollars for N160 while Industries get it for N350 ! Is that not Crazy ? 11. A Country where a few People have access to Federal reserves and those few can get loans, not because of what they can produce but the connection they have. Is that Country not doomed already ? 12. A Country where we import what we produce because it's "cheaper" to do so, is doomed. 13. A Country that has arable Land and teeming idle Youths but still complain of hunger, should not talk about Currency depreciation. It's not only annoying but nauseating. 14. A Country where free money flows can never control inflow and outflow of Forex. Imagine someone who wants to hide his loot went to "Aboki", the Forex Dealer, to buy Dollars worth $50 million just to hide it in the basement of his House. That money has no economic value, yet it deprived those Companies that needed it to import raw material. The same Companies go to "Aboki" to buy the hard Currency at exorbitant price. 15. A Country where a strong Bank Owner can influence shares from within the Stock Exchange Floor to inflate their shares' worth from N20 to N150, crash the same share to N30 and ready to buy it back at N28, all within a year. Forget it, the Currency will never appreciate in such an economy. 16. A Country where Banks are involved in round- tripping and inflated cost to siphon money, is doomed. A Company wants to import Caterpillar worth $50,000. A Bank made the forex for such import $550,000. Meanwhile no Caterpillar was imported at last, yet the money faded into private accounts. Who strained the Forex exchange rate in that case ? Copied |

franugo: It is an automated transaction. That debit of Naira is converted to an equivalence of whatever currency is agreed at the moment the payment is made. It’s only values (numbers) we are just spending, not real paper. As conversion is made, your Naira balance decreases after considering current exchange rate used at that moment and the Dollar (or whatever currency) account of the merchant increases (credited) in value of his or her currency you agreed when making the contract of sales. For example, if an American buys something online from European seller (merchant) and uses his card, an American is debited the equivalence of Euro at that moment he was making payment, using official rate, then an European merchant is credited with Euro value of the sales. It’s as simple as that. The same thing will be applicable to someone buying in Naira. We were using our cards for international payments online before in Nigeria until FG blocked it because Nigerians were using the opportunity to move stolen money abroad. At that period, there was No pressure on Naira at all because you can easily buy with your Naira card. More so, we were importing less then, our refineries were working. I witness an era when N0.34kobo was equivalent to $1. |
