The official U.S. dollar rate was set at 43.37 hryvnias, marking a decrease of 12 kopiykas from the previous day. Conversely, the official euro rate rose by 48 kopiykas to 50.75 hryvnias. The Polish zloty also increased by 16 kopiykas, reaching 11.92 hryvnias.
Decisions by the National Bank
The Board of the National Bank of Ukraine decided to keep its key policy rate unchanged at 15% per annum. This decision signals a commitment to monetary policy stability and the intent to maintain control over inflation. Furthermore, the NBU approved an operation to exchange non-cash foreign currency held by banks for cash, a move that could impact market liquidity and the availability of foreign currency resources.
According to the information released by the National Bank, the official exchange rates as of April 9, 2026, are as follows:
- U.S. dollar - 43.37 hryvnias
- Euro - 50.75 hryvnias
- Polish zloty - 11.92 hryvnias
Rates at commercial banks may vary slightly. For instance, at Oschadbank, the dollar is quoted at 43.15/43.75 hryvnias, the euro at 50.40/51.30 hryvnias, and the zloty at 11.35/12.15 hryvnias. PrivatBank lists the dollar at 43.15/43.75 hryvnias, the euro at 50.15/51.15 hryvnias, and the zloty at 11.80/11.99 hryvnias. At PUMB, the dollar rate is 43.20/43.80 hryvnias, the euro is 50.50/51.20 hryvnias, and the zloty is 11.74/12.04 hryvnias.
Amid these currency market fluctuations, the National Bank of Ukraine continues to monitor the economic situation and implement measures to maintain financial stability in the country. The central bank's policies are closely watched as they directly influence the cost of borrowing and the value of the national currency.
The situation on the foreign exchange market indicates certain volatilities, which may be driven by both external economic factors and internal shifts in NBU policy. Maintaining the key rate at 15% suggests the regulator's cautious approach to monetary policy and its efforts to support the hryvnia while controlling inflationary risks. Given the shifting exchange rates, it remains important to follow the National Bank's subsequent decisions, as they could significantly impact the country's financial system.
