Some Financial Economists have expressed great concerns on the minor influence that the Nigeria-China currency swap had on the country’s economy, three years after.
The experts told the Newsmen in Lagos on Friday that the volume of currency import so far traded, had not been significant, though a few swaps took place.
The pact which marked three years of implementation in April, was signed on April 27, 2018, to ease demand pressure on the country’s supply of foreign exchange.
The Chief Executive Officer of Arvo Finance, Mr Ayotunde Bally, said that the pact had not been fully utilised due to a decrease in the drawdown of the money input of the Chinese Yuan to the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Here’s an alarming statistic: According to research by the Federal Reserve, one out of every four Americans has nothing saved for retirement. Part of the reason is that, according to the Schwartz Center for Economic Policy Analysis, more than 60% of Americans aren’t participating in an employer’s pension or retirement savings plan. Surveys find that such plans are extremely popular with workers, but many employers simply don’t offer them they’re put off by the accompanying paperwork, costs and responsibilities.
So, under the leadership of then-Sen. Kevin de León (D-Los Angeles), the state of California did its residents an enormous service in 2017 when it launched a simple and automatic retirement savings program for workers whose employers do not offer pensions or a 401(k). That program CalSavers Retirement Savings, or CalSavers has begun enrolling its first participants, although it won’t be fully phased in until the middle of next year.
