Over some months; international spending limits have been the talk of the town in nigeria. The effect is much stronger than the current fuel scarcity in the country.
Many companies find it very hard to get FX for their importation purposes as CBN has strongly advised deposit banks to source FX for their customers with export proceeds. Ever since, banks have been managing quotas of FX available to them.
Amidst this whole scarcity, standard chartered bank never looked back to disappoint her customers. They made their international spending limit on their naira visa card 100$ monthly with 466/$ as their exchange rate which is fair enough.

The standard chartered bank is offering this 100$ international spending limit to all their users. Many people claim standard chartered has fewer customers that’s why they can cater for the FX needs of their customers.
The 100$ which has been greatly mocked by Nigerians as low limits has now become the highest spending limit on any naira cards across the whole federation.
