The Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) survey has revealed that 65.8 percent of respondents want the monetary authority to cut interest rates. The finding comes just days before the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) convenes for its July meeting to decide on the future direction of interest rates.

When Governor Olayemi Cardoso led a high-level CBN delegation to meet Central Bank of Egypt Governor Hassan Abdalla, it was a deliberate step toward operational partnership, not just a photo opportunity.
