Over the next week, the dollar exchange rate will fluctuate slightly.
In Ukraine < strong>currency ratesnext week, February 26 – March 3, will be volatile, but you shouldn’t expect significant fluctuations.
This opinion was expressed by banker Taras Lesovoy in a commentary to RBC-Ukraine.< /p>
According to him, the last days of February and the first days of spring will not become too sensational on the foreign exchange market: the situation will develop quite dynamically, but without compromising the trends towards gradual liberalization of the market on the part of the National Bank.
“The market paradigm will not change: against the background of daily exchange rate changes, they will not be too noticeable, they will most likely be “cosmetic”: 0.2-0.3 hryvnia on the interbank market and 0.3-0.5 hryvnia in cash market,” the banker said.
According to him, exchange rate fluctuations on February 26 – March 3 can occur both in the direction of increasing rates and in the direction of decreasing them, but within conditional corridors: 38.5- 39.5 UAH/dollar and 41.5-43 UAH/euro on the interbank market and 38.8-39.9 UAH/dollar and 41-43 UAH/euro on the cash market (in other words, the exchange rate limits of permissible fluctuations will remain almost unchanged ).
As Taras Lesovoy noted, among the main factors that could affect the market next week, Lesovoy named international financial assistance, the timing and volume of tranches and overcoming export barriers on the western borders, on which the volume of foreign exchange earnings depends.
Let us remind you that The National Bank has tightened the rules for purchasing foreign currency – what has changed.
