As noted, the operations will be carried out taking into account the actual prevailing oil price before the start of regular sales of foreign currency from the funds of the National Wealth Fund (NWF).

“This decision was made in order to increase the predictability of the monetary authorities and reduce the volatility of financial markets in the face of significant changes in the global oil market,” the statement said.

The regulator emphasized that he was monitoring the situation in the financial market and was ready to use additional tools.

Earlier, the Central Bank decided not to buy currency in the domestic market for 30 days.
