Why this matters for Ukrainians
For Ukrainians, the NBU’s official exchange rate is the main market benchmark, although rates at banks and exchange offices may vary. A strengthening dollar is typically important for those who monitor imports, hold savings in U.S. currency, or conduct international transactions.
A decline in the euro and zloty exchange rates may be noticeable for people planning trips to the EU, purchasing goods from Europe, or incurring expenses in these currencies
