Additionally, the NBU has approved updates to insurance sector regulations, revised the authorization process for insurance intermediaries in the registry, and adjusted requirements for selling insurance and reinsurance products. A decision was also made to conduct an operation exchanging banks’ non-cash currency for cash.

Vitaliy Shapran noted that 'the dollar cannot remain permanently weak against the euro, and once a final trade agreement between the US and the EU is signed, the market will return to normal.'

The decline in the dollar and euro may reflect broader currency market trends as well as economic conditions influencing supply and demand for foreign currencies. The NBU’s updated insurance rules signal a push for stronger regulation and structural reforms, which could enhance financial system stability. Given expert comments about potential shifts in the currency market, it is important to monitor further developments that may affect exchange rates and the country’s economic outlook.
