The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) says Nigeria has recorded a surge in its external reserves, which reached $34.11 billion as of March 7, 2024, marking the highest level in eight months.

Mrs. Hakama Sidi Ali, the Acting Director of Corporate Communications at CBN, confirmed this in a statement.

She said the increase in external reserve came just as all valid FX backlog claims have been settled by the CBN.

Sidi Ali, said this represents successful clearance of the $7 billion foreign exchange (FX) backlog inherited by Governor Yemi Cardoso

“The CBN collaborated with Deloitte Consulting, an independent auditing firm, to meticulously assess the transactions, ensuring that only legitimate claims were honored.

“Any suspicious or invalid transactions were promptly referred to the relevant authorities for further investigation.

“The successful resolution of the FX backlog reflects the CBN’s commitment to addressing economic challenges and fostering stability in the foreign exchange market,” She explained.

On the surge in external reserve, Sidi Ali : ” The increase in external reserves is attributed to several factors, including a rise in remittance payments from Nigerians living abroad and increased foreign investment in local assets, particularly government debt securities.

“These developments align with the broader strategy outlined during the recent Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting, reflecting the CBN’s proactive measures to strengthen the Nigerian economy and promote sustainable growth.
