Nigeria’s central bank has extended the dollar access of foreign exchange bureaus by four months, amid improved local liquidity that has contributed to recent naira gains.

Bureaux de change have been allowed to buy as much as $25,000 a week on the official currency market since December, delivering a boost to supply that has helped the naira advance 3% to 1,498.5 per dollar from 1,549 when the program started on Dec. 19.
