Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned that the federal government proposed borrowing plan could create exchange rate risks for the Nigerian economy.
Vanguard reports that the IMF’s Africa department director, Abebe Selassie, gave the warning on Monday, October 30, when speaking on the government plans to issue $5.5 billion debt instrument by the end of this year to refinance existing domestic debt.
“IMF understands the authorities’ needs to rebalance its portfolio of domestic to foreign debt. Such a shift would however make the economy more vulnerable to exchange rate depreciation," Abebe Selassie was quoted by Bloomberg as saying.
