Truth234:
Rhapsodia I just weak after seeing all the comments. God!

Listen, the Central Bank of Nigeria prints money every year like every other government and they announced it. The issue is people don't read those reports or even understand their importance.

Between 2013 and 2018, the CBN spent N231.2 billion printing about N6.5 trillion. Nigeria has a 4 billion notes printing capacity per annum and printed 2.7 billion notes in 2018 despite projecting 3.35 billion notes.

It is normal that the government print money to cushion the economy and stimulate growth. In economics, it is called quantitative easing (QE) and does not directly translate to inflation as most people have stated above. Inflation results from low economic productivity, a situation where demand is higher than supply (cost-push inflation) or in a healthy economy where more earnings, household income and spending power of consumers continue to rise leading to surge in demand than the aggregate goods that the economy can produce (demand-pull inflation).

Here is why our QE has not been effective like the USA, Euro, Japan and others.

The difference is in the deployment. The CBN inject printed MONEY back into the economy through treasury bills, bond sales, generally capital market. The CBN sells those to raise capital and in return pay investors (their capital plus interest (yield)) when those mature. It pays them from the money printed while the government uses that money raised to finance capital projects.

In fact, you might have heard of N5 trillion that banks and some other individuals owe AMCON, that money comes from the CBN printed money used in acquiring bad debt to prevent job loss and catastrophe in the banking sector. CBN acquired those debts with their expected interests (debt monetization) to keep the banking sector afloat.

In the US, the Federal Reserve (US Central Bank) used QE to buy mortgage-backed loan products, debts of Small and Medium loan providing companies and organisations to ensure that people and companies affected by COVID-19, bad economy, etc can still function and continue to contribute to the larger economy. For instance, small and medium business loan focus companies in the US are currently ready to loan anything for any willing business because the US government has to told them it will buy all their debt. Meaning, they should not be concerned with rising bad debt but focus on borrowing based on certain criteria to ensure all hands are on deck to aid economic recovery. It means by keeping organisations in business new job creation will continue to increase and job loss during the peak of COVID-19 will gradually moderate while the US government bear all the cost until those businesses are back on their feet to pay back those loan at ZERO interest rate.

In Nigeria, the money goes into the economy through the elites while the manufacturing and businesses continue to struggle with high-interest rates. US lowered interest rate from 1 percent to Zero and still buy all the debts to ensure loan companies also do not plunge into debt without interest rates used in covering operating costs.

Please note that US and other developed nations always know the total amount printed and injected into their economy and when the economy recovered from recession they always withdraw it back. Hence, while they've been able to manage their inflation/money in circulation better.

It is simple, an economy produces what it needs to survive. The printing of money or QE is to engineer it back to that level following an economic crisis and then take it back to allow it to function independently.

I am not sure Nigeria can account for her QE. For instance, I can tell you US total QE as at today is about $700 billion, I can't say that about Nigeria.



Boss, may God bless you immediately...this explanation is detailed and easy to understand...I appreciate.

SUPERPACK:
Our foreign creditors don't spend naira, they spend and receive dollars. So after printing the naira it will remain here and be useless to us because they will still have to exchange it to dollars before leaving the country.


So what if, after printing the Naira, we use it to buy dollars from central bank and send it to China bank account??

tatatar:
Same way you can't create a car,house, foodstuffs,clothes....products and services out of thin air then you shouldn't just print money because money represents these things. Doing so would lead to consequences like inflation,in other words just printing money doesn't actually create money,you've only transfered the cost to others.
The money is just paper and has no value on its own .See it as an advanced and convenient form of trade by barter. The money is proof that you own or earned that amount of product or services and hence can be exchanged for its equivalent product or service.


I love this your last paragraph....sense wan kill you. God bless....

BRIGHT180:
There has to be a delicate balance between the naira in circulation and the forex made from export else we go the way of Zimbabwe so the challenge then is not moey note printing but more productivity, more engagement of our natural resources(beyond crude oil) and human resources to generate more forex to properly run the country and comfortably clear our debts which by the way should not(because it can) be paid once for it's adverse effect on the country economy but rather paid in the staggered way we have agreed like how you pay back a bank loan


"...generating more FOREX"

Please, I really don't understand this thing with forex...can you break it down? I am tied of pretending to understand it.

Good evening Nairalanders

Please help me understand some things in governance.

Considering the huge debt the country is faced with under this Buhari's Government, why can't the government print money in the CBN and pay the lenders??

Thank you so much.
