CBN unveils Price Verification Portal for forex dealings

In a bid to sanitise the foreign exchange market, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has introduced a foreign exchange price verification system, specifically designed for importers to have access to forex.

The CBN disclosed this on Thursday night in a statement from its Trade and Exchange Department, adding that a price verification report from the portal was now mandatory for all Form M requests.

The new measure takes effect from August 31, 2023.
