The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has announced a rescheduling of its Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting to February 19 and 20, 2025. This marks a change from the initially planned dates of February 12 and 13, 2025.
In a statement released on Monday, the apex bank explained that the adjustment was made to allow more time for extensive preparations. “The shift in the MPC meeting date is to enable the CBN adequately prepare to engage in comprehensive discussions on key monetary policy issues,” the statement read.
The MPC meeting, a critical platform where decisions on Nigeria’s monetary policies are made, will address pressing economic matters, including inflation, interest rates, and foreign exchange policies.
Stakeholders and financial analysts are anticipating the outcomes of this meeting, particularly in light of ongoing economic challenges in the country.
