Naira finishes 1st half of 2024 as worst performing currency in the world

This is according to a report released by Bloomberg on Friday, June 28, 2024.

Tracking data from FMDQ, Bloomberg identified devaluation, insufficient dollar liquidity, and market volatility as factors hindering the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)’s effort to strengthen the currency.

Other currencies that recorded poor performances in the first six months of the year besides the naira include Egypt’s pound and Ghana’s cedi.
