Analyst View
Naira depreciated significantly by 1.68% at the official window from its previous rate of N415.10/$1 to a new  N422.07/$1 as of Thursday, October 14th, 2021. The Naira also depreciated at the parallel from the previous price of N568/1$ to a new N573/$1. The Naira is significantly trailing the Dollar by a wide margin most likely to slide against the USD in days to come as the financial market is still troubled and Nigeria has little or no local alternatives to many imported items. The fallen value of the Naira at the black market rides on hoarding and speculative purchases.
