New rates for October 30

The Central Bank of Uzbekistan has published the foreign currency rates against the sum effective October 30. The US dollar rose by 62.2 sums to 12,066.22 sums, the euro gained 82.51 sums to 13,444.18 sums, and the Russian ruble strengthened by 0.94 sums to 149.74 sums. The changes were reported in two publications Daryo.uz — in Uzbek and Russian.

Second consecutive increase

The increase follows the previous business day: as Daryo.uz notes, citing the earlier announcement, the day before, the dollar jumped by 85.04 sums and stood at 12,004.02 sums. Thus, according to the official Central Bank rates, over two days the American currency gained about 147 sums, while the euro also rose noticeably, although the publications do not provide data on its movement for October 29.

What is important to keep in mind

The official Central Bank rates in question are accounting values used for bookkeeping and customs settlements; actual exchange rates at banks and exchange offices may differ. The publications do not explain the reasons for the rise and contain no Central Bank forecasts, so the factors behind the sum's weakening cannot be judged from these reports.
