What Affects The Foreign Exchange Rate?

Here are some reasons why the dollar to naira rate can go up or down:

• Inflation Rates: If prices rise quickly (inflation), it can affect the black market rates. If Nigeria’s economy stays steady and inflation is under control, it’s good for the naira. But if the naira keeps falling, it means things like food might cost more every day.
• Interest Rates: The interest rates banks use to lend money is another thing to watch. If these rates go up, it could slow down the economy. That would make the naira less valuable.
• Government Debt: If the government owes a lot of money, it can make people less likely to invest in the economy. When more money comes into the economy, the naira does better.
• Speculators: Some people try to guess what the dollar to naira rate will do. They keep a lot of money, hoping to make a profit. This can make the naira fall even more.
• Trade Conditions: If Nigeria’s trade with other countries is going well, the naira can get stronger. Right now, Nigeria is buying more from other countries than it is selling. Lots of stuff comes from places like China, India, and other Asian countries.
