According to the expert, the currency market is currently somewhat on pause, but closer to autumn, Ukrainians can expect changes.
Next week, from August 5 to 11, the situation on the currency market will be no different from the previous one.
This was stated by the head of the treasury department of Globus Bank, Taras Lesovoy, in a commentary to 24 Kanal.
“Of course, it is too early to talk about how long the period of relative/temporary calm on the currency market will last. However, we are obviously at an intermediate stage, and further currency changes may occur, as we predicted, closer to autumn,” the banker says.
According to him, on the one hand, the range of fluctuations will remain at new, higher levels – 40.7 – 41.7 hryvnia per dollar. On the other hand, the NBU will take timely measures to curb demand.
