The average value of the dollar in exchange offices increased to 38.25 UAH, and the euro rate increased to 41.90 UAH.
The sharp devaluation of the hryvnia against the dollar and the euro continues in the cash market. It was reported by RBC-Ukraine in reference to tracking data on Thursday, December 21.
Thus, the average dollar exchange rate in Ukraine increased by another 35 kopecks – to 38.25 UAH, and the euro exchange rate immediately increased by 45 kopecks – to 41.90 UAH.
Today, exchange offices buy dollars on average for 37.75 UAH, and euros for 41.20 UAH.
In the interbank market, the dollar exchange rate was at the level of 37.68-37.70 (buying and selling) – an increase of 7 kopecks compared to the previous day’s closing.
Last day, the National Bank raised the dollar exchange rate for the ninth time – to 37.5516 UAH per 1 dollar (+0.2311 UAH). The euro exchange rate is 41.0664 UAH per 1 euro (+0.1445 UAH).
As you know, from December 1, the National Bank removed all restrictions on the sale of cash money to the population. After that, cash and official rates began to converge. The regulator believes this will help stabilize exchange rate expectations and increase the stability of the foreign exchange market.
It was also reported that last week the NBU sold a record amount of foreign currency in two months.
