Influence of Exchange Rate Fluctuations on the Performance of Nigerian Non-Oil Exports
Banking and Finance — 2025, Undergraduate
This study investigated the influence of exchange rate fluctuations on the performance of Nigerian non-oil exports. Time series data on exchange rates and export values were analysed together with interviews of exporters in the agricultural and manufacturing sectors. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and regression techniques. The findings revealed that currency depreciation improved price competitiveness in the short run but raised input costs, with mixed net effects on export earnings. Exchange rate volatility also complicated planning for exporters. The study recommends export diversification, value-addition, and policy measures to stabilise the exchange rate.
