The Central Bank of Nigeria has successfully resolved all outstanding foreign exchange obligations while the country’s external reserves have increased to a significant $34.11 billion.

According to the CBN, it employed Deloitte Consulting, an independent auditing firm, to meticulously assess the transactions, ensuring that only legitimate claims were honoured.

“Any invalid transactions were referred to the relevant authorities for further investigation,” it said.

The CBN’s actions are part of a broader strategy outlined during the last Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting.
