The apex bank said all legitimate claims for foreign exchange backlog had been resolved.
According to the CBN, it employed Deloitte Consulting, an independent auditing firm, to meticulously assess the transactions, ensuring that only legitimate claims were honoured.

The CBN’s actions are part of a broader strategy outlined during the last Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting.
