The expert believes that there is a possibility of increased demand for the currency, but the situation is unlikely to change dramatically / photo REUTERSThe situation on the currency market in the last week of 2024 promises to be predictable. The gradual growth of exchange rates is in line with forecasts.The head of the treasury department of “Globus Bank” Taras Lesovy in a comment to UNIAN noted that the official exchange rate will not exceed the mark of 42 hryvnias per dollar.
“In the cash market, although increased demand for currency is possible, the season of discounts and holidays has slowly reached its peak. Therefore, we cannot rule out that the number of those who will sell currency and the number of its buyers will be more or less commensurate,” – said the banker.
According to him, the dollar exchange rate from December 23 to 29, according to the forecast, will be within the range of 41.6 – 41.9 hryvnias per dollar on the interbank market and 41.7 – 42.2 hryvnias per dollar on the cash market.
Thus, 100 dollars in hryvnias will cost 4,170 – 4,220 hryvnias per dollar in Ukraine until December 29. At the same time, 1,000 dollars in hryvnias will cost Ukrainians 41,700 – 42,200 hryvnias per dollar.
