USD Falls in ‘Black Market’
The US dollar has fallen in value sharply in the ‘black market’ of Baku on Saturday, November 19. While on Thursday and Friday the established purchase rate was 1 USD / 1.8250 AZN and the sale rate was 1 USD / 1.8350 AZN, on Saturday the US dollar could be bought for 1.78 manat and sold for 1.77 manat.
This gives reason to observers to believe that this week the dollar exchange rate has reached a peak and demand for the US currency has begun to fall.
It is noteworthy that CBA last two days kept the dollar against the manat stable at the level of 1.7092 AZN per 1 USD.
Throughout the last week, many commercial banks have sharply limited or even stopped selling dollars and Euros. -06D--
