IMF Tasks Nigeria On Monetary Policy Reforms

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) mission to Nigeria says exchange rate and monetary policy reforms, increased revenue mobilisation and structural reforms will unlock Nigeria’s growth potential. The team lead, Ms Jesmin Rahman, said this in a statement issued on Friday in Washington D.C at the conclusion of the virtual mission. The mission was conducted from October 30 to November 17, in the context of the 2020 Article IV Consultation with Nigeria. Rahman said that the COVID-19 pandemic was exacting a heavy toll on Nigerian economy, already experiencing falling per capita income and double-digit inflation, with limited buffers and structural bottlenecks. According to her, low oil prices and sharp capital outflows have significantly increased Balance Of Payments (BOP) pressures; together with the pandemic-related lockdown, led to a large output contraction and increased unemployment.
