Abstract
The study measured the impact of exchange rate to financial remittance in Nigeria for the period 1990 to 2016 using the traditional ordinary least square method for estimation. Also, empirical and theoretical evidence from Nigeria. Africa and the continent was compared. The analyses of the OLS regression showed evidence that real effective exchange rate positively and significantly impacted on financial remittance in Nigeria. Similarly, estimates from the ordinary least square model provide evidence to show that exchange rate also positively significantly impacted on other macroeconomic variables such as money supply but negatively to economic growth under the period of the study. The result points to the fact that the macroeconomic variables and financial remittance in Nigeria if well managed can engineer the Nigerian economy to greater growth.
