Fresh from purging the leadership of the central bank, President Zelenskiy told business leaders yesterday that Ukraine’s exchange rate should match the rate in the national budget – 30 hryvnia to the dollar. That would represent a 11% devaluation from today’s National Bank of Ukraine rate — 26.93 hryvnia to the dollar. Last December, the hryvnia strengthened to a recent peak of 23.22 to the dollar. Today’s rate is half of one percent weaker than one year ago, July 8, 2019.
