Nigeria's Net Forex Inflow Grew 12.3% to $41.73 Billion in First Eight Months of 2025: Central Bank
This positive performance was driven by a strong 21.3% increase in total foreign exchange inflows into the economy, which reached $74.14 billion, according to Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) data.
This growth more than offset a larger 34.4% increase in outflows to $32.2 billion over the same period, the CBN noted.
While monthly data shows some variation, with net inflow declining in August to $3.74 billion from $8.22 billion in July, the overall eight-month trend reportedly reflects robust annual growth and an improving foreign exchange flow for the period.
The CBN attributed this drop to reduced inflows from autonomous sources (non-government channels), which fell to $4.05 billion in August from $6.39 billion the previous month.
