The naira on Friday exchanged at N502 to dollar on the parallel market as panic buyers piled pressure on the local currency.

Managing Director/CEO Financial Derivatives Company Limited, Bismarck Rewane, said the naira was weakening because of panic buying by forex users, speculative trading and front loading of future demand.

The naira continues to come under pressure after devaluation by the Central Bank of Nigeria that pegged the official exchange rate at N410.25 to dollar. Mungai said the recent rise in global crude oil prices has not fed through into increased revenue from oil exports while projecting sustained pressure on the naira in the coming days.

President, Association of Bureaux De Change Operators of Nigeria , Aminu Gwadabe, said forex speculators are behind the naira crisis. The IMF insisted that restrictions on access to foreign exchange for certain categories of goods and multiple exchange rates create distortions in both private and public sectors decision making. They discourage long-term investment, encourage smuggling and provide avenues for corruption.
