It is achieved by removing zeros from a currency or moving some decimal points to the left, with the aim of correcting perceived misalignment in the currency and pricing structure, and enhancing the credibility of the local currency.<\/p>\n<p>Some online reports had claimed that the apex bank planned to redenominate the currency such that $1 will equal N1.25 by November 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The report had claimed, \u201cThe name of the national currency will still be the Naira. However, during the transition period, the existing Naira will be referred to as the \u201cOld Naira\u201d, and the new one to be called the \u2018New Naira.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter the transition period, the word \u2018New\u2019 may be dropped. For example, the following equivalents will obtain as we re-denominate: 50 kobo Half kobo; N1 = 1 kobo coin; N2 = 2 kobo coin; N5 = 5 kobo coin; N10 = 10 kobo coin; N20 = 20 kobo coin; N50 = 50 kobo coin or note; N100 = N 1 note; N200 = N2 note; N500 = N5 note; N1,000 = N10 note and the N2,000 = N20 note.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the CBN labeled the report as \u201cfake news\u201d adding that there are no such plans to redenominate the currency.<\/p>\n<p>The apex bank said, \u201cThe Central Bank of Nigeria would like to bring to your attention that the attached message currently circulating on social media is false and should be disregarded.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report claimed that the CBN was planning to execute the policy to drive down prices amidst the country\u2019s rising inflation<\/p>\n<p>The CBN under the Acting Governor, Folashodun Shonubi on June 14 2023, reintroduced the \u2018Willing buyer, willing seller\u2019 foreign exchange model and floated the currency.<\/p>\n<p>The apex bank also unified the forex market along the Investors\u2019 and Exporters\u2019 Forex window now the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The apex bank yesterday said,there was no iota of truth in the messages, describing it as fake It urged members of the public to disregard the message The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has reacted to reports making the rounds that it&#8217;s planning to re-denominate the naira.
