    Ukraine seeks to end ’panic’ over sliding currency | Business Recorder
    ▻http://www.brecorder.com/money-a-banking/198/1226972

    Ukrainian leaders sought Tuesday to reassure financial markets by pledging action to shore up the national currency, which has hit record lows over the conflict in the east and the dire state of the economy. President Petro Poroshenko held talks with leading cabinet ministers, central bank governors and the heads of several major banks to try to stabilise the situation.

    Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk blamed “panic” and “speculation” for the slide in the hryvnia, which has plunged more than 40 percent this year despite central bank intervention. Officially the rate set by the bank was 13.53 to the dollar on Tuesday, although on the interbank market it was trading at lows of around 14.9. The currency was quoted officially at 17.3 against the euro on Tuesday, while on the interbank market it was trading at 19.25.

    On Monday, the central bank announced a series of measures tightening its capital and exchange controls, including limiting cash purchases of foreign currency to 3,000 hryvnias a day.

    3000 hryvnia par jour et par personne, soit 200 euros.

      J’avais vu passer l’info lundi, mais limitant la vente de devises étrangères, dans l’autre sens donc, ce qui me paraissait plus qu’étrange…
      Erreur de traduction, donc.

      Ukraine’s central bank said on Monday it would reduce the volume of mandatory sales of foreign currency income on the domestic market for all companies to 75 percent from the present 100 percent level.

      In August, the bank ordered companies to sell all of their foreign currency income to offset the pressure of a pro-Russian separatist revolt on the Ukrainian currency.

      The bank said in a statement that it had softened its policy because of “positive results of the National Bank of Ukraine’s anti-crisis measures in the sphere of currency regulation”.

      The new rules will come in force from Sept. 23.

      L’obligation de conversion en hryvnias de l’intégralité des recettes en devises étrangères a été imposée le 20 août, auparavant les entreprises pouvaient en conserver la moitié.

      Comme l’explique, par antiphrase, la Banque centrale, j’imagine que cette obligation a provoqué une telle fuite de capitaux qu’elle se sent obligée de l’assouplir un peu…
