This reflects the current rate at which individuals are trading dollars for naira outside of official financial institutions.

Tuesday, June 3, 2025, records a small downward movement in the exchange rate, revealing a modest gain in the local currency’s strength among those actively trading in the foreign exchange market.

The black market rate represents the value at which individuals can trade their dollars for naira outside official exchange channels, where the currency’s value is largely driven by supply and demand dynamics rather than government regulation.

Note that the Black Market Exchange rate is typically higher than the official exchange rate because it is not regulated by the government and reflects a more immediate, fluctuating market response.

Today’s exchange rate has slightly improved compared to Monday, June 2, when the naira exchanged at ₦1,598 per dollar. (This indicates that the naira has gained a little value in the past 24 hours, possibly due to reduced demand for dollars or improved foreign currency inflow.)

The value of a country’s currency is determined by aggregate supply and demand, influenced by factors such as national interest rates, inflation, capital flow, and the overall money supply.

These forces, both internal and external, affect the strength of a nation’s currency and contribute to exchange rate fluctuations. The most common method to assess a currency’s value is through exchange rates. The two main exchange rate systems are the fixed rate and the floating rate systems, with the parallel market rate offering a real-time reflection of currency trends.

Investors and market participants closely monitor parallel market rates for a more immediate and practical reflection of currency trends, often making it a reliable indicator of short-term shifts in economic conditions.
