The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has announced a significant review of its Discount Window restrictions and the framework for Open Market Operations (OMO). In a circular issued by Acting Director Okey Umeano, the CBN confirmed that while the restriction on OMO auction participation for institutions using the Discount Window on the same day remains, it has lifted the FX transaction restrictions tied to the Discount Window. This change allows greater access to the Discount Window for participants in the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market and government securities auctions.
