(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Moderate growth in the U.S. dollar exchange rate against the hryvnia is expected this week, according to Vadym Iosub, a senior analyst at Alpari analytical company.
Over the past week, the hryvnia exchange rate against the U.S. dollar in all segments of the foreign exchange market has decreased moderately by 0.6-0.9%. Since last Monday, the official exchange rate of the hryvnia, set by the NBU, fell from UAH 28.12 to UAH 28.36 against the dollar (-0.9%).
