While predicting that an unpredictable change in the oil market may crash the value of naira to dollar at the foreign exchange floor, PwC, in its report titled "Nigeria Economic Outlook Top 10 themes for 2019" disclosed that foreign market may be stable depending on the global oil value.

According to the report, the foreign reserves may also reduce in 2019 as a result of elections, adding that petrol price may be re-adjusted from N145 per litre based on continuation of fuel subsidy or full deregulation.
