Exchange Rate For Dollar To Naira Today, 28th September 2022

By Tolulope Oke

Dollar to Naira exchange rate today, 28th September at the peer-to-peer (P2P) segment is set at N734.02/$1, compared to at N722.92/$1 it traded this time yesterday.

This surge comes on the heels of the CBN’s unanimous decision to increase the monetary policy rate to 15 per cent, barely a month after increasing it to 14 per cent. The main cause of this decision was the nation’s inflation rate leaving the benchmark of 20 per cent.

In a similar vein, the black market segment witnessed the same trend as the Dollar surged to N727/$1 in contrast to N721/$1 it traded yesterday. This is according to currency traders in Lagos.

In the Investors and Exporters (I & E) Window, Naira slumped by 0.08 per cent to settle at N436.33/$1 the same value it concluded last week. This, however, is in contrast to N430/$1 it closed trades on Monday.

The value of forex transactions recorded at the spot market yesterday went up by 27.31 per cent or $21.33 million to $99.43 million. In the interbank segment of the market, the Naira closed flat against the Pound Sterling at N463.96/£1.

Meanwhile, in the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) forex sector, the local currency remained flat to settle at N431.83/$1.
