Nigeria witnessed a record-breaking $947 million in remittance inflows during July 2026, channeled through International Money Transfer Operators (IMTOs). This represents the highest monthly amount ever received through formal channels, as reported by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). The substantial increase brings the nation closer to achieving the CBN’s established target of $1 billion in monthly remittances. This positive trend indicates a strong flow of money from Nigerians abroad, contributing significantly to the national economy. The CBN has been actively working to boost remittance inflows as a crucial source of foreign exchange. Experts believe this continued growth will bolster Nigeria’s financial stability and support economic development. Further details were initially reported by Vanguard News.
