Nigeria’s FX Market Update Q3,2025

The Nigeria FX Market Update for Q3 2025, prepared from the Central Bank of Nigeria’s latest Statistical Bulletin. Summary Key Highlights

Total FX inflows stood at US$27.09 billion in Q3 2025, only marginally lower than Q2 levels. This shows that FX supply remained broadly resilient, even as market pressures eased.
CBN FX sales to I&E, SME, Invisibles declined by 41.96% q/q to US$1.84bn
CBN FX sales declined in Q3 2025 as FX pressures eased materially, driven by a sharp compression in outflows, continued dominance of autonomous FX inflows, and softer import-related demand, particularly from the industrial and oil sectors.
In addition, moderation in financial-services FX demand reduced volatility, allowing the CBN to shift from active market supply to net FX absorption and reduce gross sales without destabilising liquidity.
