For those with ties to both Canada and Nigeria, knowing the latest exchange rate between the Canadian Dollar (CAD) and the Nigerian Naira (NGN) is important. Whether you're sending money to loved ones, conducting business, or planning a trip, staying informed about the currency fluctuations can significantly impact your finances.
Official (CBN) vs. Black Market Rates
The official exchange rate is determined by the Central Bank of Nigeria and authorized market participants. However, due to restrictions on foreign exchange access, a black market often emerges, offering different rates. Black market rates tend to be higher than official rates, reflecting the increased demand for foreign currency through unofficial channels. While tempting, participating in the black market is illegal and carries significant risks.
Factors influencing the rate
Several factors influence the CAD-NGN exchange rate, including:
- Oil prices: Nigeria's economy heavily relies on oil exports. When oil prices are high, the Naira strengthens against the CAD. Conversely, lower oil prices weaken the Naira.
- Canadian economic performance: A strong Canadian economy can lead to a higher CAD value against the NGN.
- Interest rates: Central bank interest rates in both countries affect the attractiveness of their currencies. Higher rates in Canada can attract investment, strengthening the CAD against the NGN.
- Political and economic stability: Political instability or economic challenges in Nigeria can weaken the Naira.
