Questions
Which rate is this?
The CBN central rate for the pound sterling, from the exchange-rate table the Central Bank of Nigeria publishes each business day. It sits between the CBN's buying and selling rates.
Why is my bank's or a BDC's rate different?
Banks, bureaux de change and transfer services set their own prices and add a margin and fees. The CBN figure is a reference point for the official market, not a price you can get over the counter. Why rates differ.
When does the rate update?
The CBN publishes figures for each business day, sometimes a day or more after the day they are for, and none for weekends or public holidays. We check the CBN every hour and always show the date the CBN gave the figure.
Can I buy pounds on LagosXchange?
No. LagosXchange publishes rate information only. We do not buy, sell, hold or transfer money of any kind, and we give no advice.
