In the parallel market, the latest available figures from the previous day indicated that Bureau de Change operators were buying the dollar at approximately ₦1,370 and selling it at ₦1,375. However, these figures have not been confirmed as the prevailing rates for Thursday, October 22.

These conversions are estimates based on the stated indicative rate and may differ from the actual amount received when exchanging dollars through a bank or Bureau de Change operator.
The CBN publishes official exchange-rate information through its established channels, while rates quoted in the formal and parallel markets may differ. Customers are advised to check with their banks or authorised dealers for the applicable rates before completing transactions.
