There is again a rush in demand for American currency in Ukraine. The population is buying up dollars, fearing inflation after the elections. At the same time, the National Bank, as before, assures that the panic is groundless. \n \nAfter the National Bank's recent currency interventions, the dollar exchange rate is no longer rising, but demand for it has become even greater. There is a shortage of currency at exchange offices. \n \nBankers note that such restrictions are temporary and forced measures. Now, when demand for currency has increased, speculators are buying dollars at exchange offices and reselling them on the "black market" at a significantly higher price. At 5-70 per dollar, reports «Novy.tv». \n \nHowever, the National Bank reassures and notes that it sees no reasons for panic. The NBU promises to allocate money until the queues disappear. According to Serhiy Tihipko, gold and foreign currency reserves are sufficient to remove the rush. \n \nBankers do not advise choosing the dollar as the main way of saving. As an example, in the USA, on the eve of presidential elections, the population insures itself against economic risks by investing money mainly in the euro currency. \n \n
