Nigeria’s current account surplus rose 67.93 percent to $7.54 billion in the second quarter (Q2) of 2026, driven mainly by higher export earnings and an increase in the goods account surplus.
According to provisional balance of payments (BOP) statistics by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), the current account surplus increased from $4.49 billion in Q1 2026 and was also higher than the $5.17 billion recorded in Q2 2025.
