JUST IN ! See The Shocking Dollar- To- Naira Exchange Rate Today After Trump’s Victory – HEARD VOICE NEWS ONLINE

Dollar- To- Naira Exchange Rate Today After Trump’s Victory....Read Full Article>>

The US dollar soared to unprecedented levels following Donald Trump’ s election as the 47th President of the United States, marking a significant impact on global currency markets. This surge led to a noticeable drop in value for the British pound, euro, and Nigerian naira, which struggled in both official and unofficial markets. The dollar’ s rapid ascent reflects a renewed confidence in the US economy under Trump’ s projected policies, which many believe will foster greater investment returns and economic growth.

Bloomberg reports that the dollar spiked by as much as 1. 7%, marking its highest level since November 2023. This increase represents the dollar’ s strongest rally in four years, fueled by expectations that Trump’ s administration will bring investor- friendly policies. As confidence in the US economy grows, investors are moving their funds into dollars, causing a ripple effect in global markets.
The British pound, for instance, saw a substantial dip of 1. 41% against the dollar on November 6, its lowest point since August. Similarly, the euro fell by 2. 24%, reaching its weakest position since June. This sharp drop reflects investors’ concerns over the stability of the European economy compared to the perceived strength of the US market under Trump’ s leadership.

In Nigeria, the naira continued its decline against the dollar, compounding issues in a foreign exchange market that has already been under pressure. According to FMDQ Securities data, the naira fell to N1, 681. 65 per dollar on Wednesday, down from Tuesday’ s close of N1, 671. 32 per dollar— a 0. 61% decrease. In the black market, the naira also suffered, trading at N1, 735 to the dollar, reflecting a N5 drop from the previous day.
The ongoing depreciation of the naira against the dollar highlights the currency’ s vulnerability in Nigeria’ s fluctuating economy. The country’ s limited dollar supply in the Nigerian Autonomous Foreign Exchange Market (NAFEX) exacerbates this issue. On Wednesday, dollar supplies in the NAFEX window were recorded at $196. 78 million, but this has not been sufficient to stabilize the naira, leading to an unfavorable exchange rate for local businesses and consumers.
The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) has weighed in on the naira’ s situation, expressing optimism that a re- evaluation of Nigeria’ s foreign exchange policy could stabilize the currency. According to LCCI President Gabriel Idahosa, a review of the current free- floating exchange rate by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) could help ease the naira’ s decline. He suggested that a more managed approach might restore confidence in the naira, making it a more attractive currency for investors.
Idahosa’ s perspective aligns with the need for structural economic reforms in Nigeria to reduce dependence on the dollar. By diversifying the economy and strengthening local industries, Nigeria could reduce the impact of external economic shocks. For now, the dollar’ s dominance against the naira underscores the challenges facing the Nigerian economy, which relies heavily on oil exports and is vulnerable to fluctuations in the global energy market.
The dollar’ s surge serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of global economies, where political shifts in one nation can trigger far- reaching consequences worldwide. As Trump’ s policies unfold, global currency markets are expected to remain volatile, with the US dollar likely to maintain its strong position. However, for economies like Nigeria’ s, this period underscores the urgency of strengthening domestic economic resilience to weather such international financial trends.

JUST IN: First Bank notifies vendors of plans to transition to new banking platform from October 26

Published

on

By

One of the tier-1 lenders in Nigeria, First Bank, has announced that it will transition to a new cloud-based procurement and financial platform as part of its ongoing efforts to enhance operational efficiency and service delivery.....Read Full Article>>

In a notice sent to its vendors and suppliers seen by Nairametrics, the Bank said the transition billed to start on Saturday, October 26, would cause some service disruptions, hence, the vendors were being notified ahead.

The bank has, however, not issued any notice to its depositor customers as of the time of filling this report.

This is coming amidst disruptions in the services of two other tier-1 banks, Zenith and GTBank as a result of their recent transition to new core banking platforms.

What First Bank is saying 

In the notice sent on Wednesday, the Bank wrote:

“As part of the Bank’s continuous investments to improve operational efficiencies and service experience, we will be transitioning from our current Procurement and Financial Platforms to a new Cloud-based Platform that provides additional capabilities and benefits. 

“During the cut-over period, certain activities and transactions will need to be suspended to aid housecleaning and safe migration of transactions with minimal disruption.  

“The cut-over period will be from Saturday, October 26, 2024, to Sunday, November 3, 2024, while the new Cloud-based solution will be live on Monday, November 4, 2024, and normal activities will resume.” 

Services to be impacted  

The Bank noted that during the transition period, vendors would be unable to submit invoices on the bank’s current Electronic Business Suite (EBS).

  • It said payments during this period will only be processed if invoices are submitted for received POs by Friday, October 25, 2024.
  • While noting that its current supplier portal will no longer be in use effective November 4, the Bank said subsequent communication on the details of the new Supplier Portal and a job card will be provided before Go-live on Monday November 4, 2024.

“Kindly note to take proactive steps as indicated above to avoid business disruption during this critical period. Further details regarding onboarding, training and user guides will be communicated before the end of the week,” the Bank stated.

What you should know 

While the Bank’s message was focused on the suppliers and vendors side of the transition, it is unclear yet how this will impact its depositor customers.

Similar transitions by Sterling, Zenith, and GTBank have left many bank customers in frustration as many found it difficult to carry out transactions.

As of Monday, some customers of the banks were still having difficulty accessing their money even weeks after the banks said the transition process had been completed.
