#currency stability

The naira has stabilised at N1,370.19 per USD, attributed to the Central Bank of Nigeria's (CBN) intervention which has reduced volatility in the currency market. This stability is further supported by rising global oil prices, which are seen as promising for Nigeria's economy.

Kenya's financial markets in the first half of 2026 have shown resilience, providing investment opportunities in equities, fixed income, and currency segments despite global challenges. The Kenyan shilling has remained stable against the dollar, contrasting with the volatility experienced two years prior, with analysts attributing this stability to disciplined fiscal management, according to Sharp Daily.
