In its October 2024 Economic Report, the apex bank said the economy recorded a lower month-on-month net foreign exchange inflow, on account of decreased inflow through the Bank.

 

“Foreign exchange flows through the economy amounted to a net inflow of $4.86 billion, relative to $6.35 billion in September 2024.

“Aggregate foreign exchange inflow increased to $9.15 billion, from $8.59 billion in the preceding month. “Similarly, foreign exchange outflow increased to $4.29 billion, from $2.24 billion in the preceding month.

 

“Foreign exchange inflow through the bank declined to $4.48 billion, from $5.22 billion in the preceding month, while autonomous inflow increased to $4.67 billion, from $3.37 billion in the preceding month.

 

“Outflow through the bank rose to $3.73 billion, from $1.84 billion, while autonomous outflow fell to $0.56 billion, from $0.40 billion in September 2024.

 

“Consequently, a net inflow of $4.11 billion was recorded through autonomous sources, compared with $2.97 billion in September 2024, while the bank recorded a net inflow of $0.75 billion, relative to US$3.38 billion in the preceding month.”
