How is the dollar exchange rate formed?
The dollar exchange rate today depends on many circumstances. The main factors include: the activity of the Central Bank of Russia, economic and political news, tax periods, the activity of commercial banks and demand from the population. Managing performance is not the job of central financial institutions, but any change in the amount of money in circulation can lead to changes in the foreign exchange market.
Among the factors there are significant news in the economic sphere:
- Macroeconomic reports raise the possibility of policy tightening. This leads to an increase in the attractiveness of investments and the influx of foreign currency into the country.
- As indicators worsen, the situation changes in the opposite direction.
To some extent, the dollar also depends on the amount of gold held by the US Federal Reserve. The more of it there is in the state, the more confidently the monetary unit holds on the banking exchanges. But despite this, the behavior of the currency is so unpredictable that even experienced financiers cannot always confidently predict how the dollar will behave or with 100% certainty.
Therefore, we suggest that you find out the dollar exchange rate for tomorrow or the forecast for a date set by you. To forecast the dollar exchange rate you can study:
- archive,
- fluctuation graph.
Most of the fluctuations occur due to changes in the price of oil. The global volume of production and its consumption have an impact.

The latest forecast for the US dollar to ruble exchange rate for 2018 - a table with currency forecasts by month. Expert opinion on the prospects for the USD/RUB pair exchange rate in Russia.
Fresh dollar exchange rate forecast. Will there be growth?
Here's how he assesses the dollar's prospects for the fall and winter of 2018 Kira Yukhtenko, chief editor of InvestFuture and stock columnist:
Until we see the final version of US sanctions against Russia, it will not be easy for the dollar to firmly gain a foothold below 65 rubles. There is too much uncertainty for investors. We do not know whether the sanctions will affect Russian state-owned banks and whether a ban will be introduced on the ownership of Russian government bonds.
In my opinion, the following scenario is likely: in November the ruble will face increased volatility. After the elections to the US Congress on November 6 and the meeting between Trump and Putin on November 11, the American side will return to discussing sanctions. During this period, the dollar can rise above 70 and even above 75 rubles.
In fact, sanctions may not be as harsh as the market fears. And if the price of Brent oil remains at least above $70 per barrel until the end of the year, the ruble will have a chance to strengthen in December.
However, do not let your guard down: economists are warning of a new global crisis already in 2019-2020. If the gloomy forecasts come true, the currencies of all developing countries, including the ruble, will suffer
What will happen to the dollar/ruble exchange rate in 2018?
Dollar/ruble chart (Weekly)
No one can accurately predict the dollar exchange rate - too many factors simultaneously participate in its formation. But, taking into account the high foreign policy risks and structural problems in the Russian economy, experts agree: the ruble exchange rate may continue to decline in the fall and winter of 2018.
At the end of 2018, the dollar to ruble exchange rate may rise to 73-75 rubles. If you want to buy a currency for long-term savings, listen to the advice of economists: any depreciation can be used for purchases
Risk factors for the ruble
- The Federal Reserve (Fed) continues to raise interest rates, which puts long-term pressure on the currencies of all developing countries
- Waiting for the final package of anti-Russian sanctions from the United States in November 2018. Additional sanctions from the EU and UK are also possible.
- Possible decline in oil prices - the United States insists that Russia and Saudi Arabia “bring down” the price by increasing production
- Trade wars around the world - possible slowdown in growth rates of all major economies in the world
Factors supporting the ruble
- The Central Bank of the Russian Federation raised the key rate in September 2018, and also suspended currency purchases for the Ministry of Finance as part of the budget until the end of the year. This decision allowed the exchange rate to stabilize in September.
- Until the fall, the price of oil continued to rise thanks to the OPEC agreement, as a deficit formed in the market.
Economists believe that the positive factors listed above will limit the potential for the ruble to weaken in the coming months. Without them, the Russian currency would be in danger of falling more rapidly.

When and how does the Central Bank set the official ruble exchange rate?
The Central Bank sets the US dollar/ruble exchange rate for tomorrow every weekday. The established rate begins to be effective on the next calendar day after the day of establishment and remains in force until the next established rate comes into effect. The data is published on the regulator’s website until 15:00 Moscow time (usually this happens around 14:00)
Let's look at an example: on Tuesday, the Bank of Russia set the dollar exchange rate for Wednesday. This is the dollar exchange rate for tomorrow. In this case, on Tuesday the exchange rate for today is the rate set on Monday. On Wednesday, the rate for today becomes the rate set on Tuesday, and the rate for tomorrow (Thursday) is published on Wednesday at around 14:00 Moscow time.
A separate logic applies on weekends and holidays. So, on Friday, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation sets the exchange rate for tomorrow, which is valid on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. The new rate for tomorrow will be published only on Monday afternoon and will come into force on Tuesday. A similar logic applies to holidays.
How is the Central Bank exchange rate formed? To do this, the regulator averages quotes for the USDRUB pair in trading on the currency section of the Moscow Exchange during the index session (from 10:00 Moscow time to 11:30 Moscow time). Then, based on the dollar exchange rate, the Bank of Russia forms the official rates of other 33 currencies. The exchange rate of the ruble depends on supply and demand in the market.
Why do we need the official dollar exchange rate, since it quickly becomes outdated and does not “keep up” with the real dynamics of the foreign exchange market? It is a standard for government agencies when preparing reports, and also serves as a convenient reference point for people who are far from the world of stock exchange news.
