Starting June 13, the Central Bank sets the official exchange rates of the dollar and the euro based on data from banks on transactions in the over-the-counter foreign exchange market. This is due to sanctions imposed by the US Treasury on the Moscow Stock Exchange and the National Clearing Center.
The Ministry of Economic Development predicts that the dollar exchange rate will exceed 100 rubles in July 2026. This is indicated in the forecast of socio-economic development for 2025-2027. From July 2026 to December 2027, a gradual weakening of the ruble is expected: at the end of the forecast period (December 2027), the dollar could reach 105 rubles.
