Santo Domingo.- The Dominican peso is the currency that depreciated the most in August against the US dollar, with -3.30% in that month alone, unlike the currencies of comparable economies in Latin America.<\/p>\n
In fact, it was the only currency that depreciated, as those of comparable economies all appreciated against the dollar.<\/p>\n
However, the Colombian peso was the one that appreciated the most in Latin America against the dollar in August, with 4.20%, according to data collected by the specialized economic media Bloomberg en L\u00ednea.<\/p>\n
Followed by the Brazilian real 3.14%, Paraguayan guaran\u00ed 2.10%, Argentine peso 1.91%, Peruvian sol 1.70%, Mexican peso 1.18%, Chilean peso 0.59%, Uruguayan peso 0.49%, Guatemalan quetzal 0.17%, Costa Rican col\u00f3n 0.15%, Honduran lempira 0.12%.<\/p>\n
For the end of 2025, the Central Bank projects an exchange rate of RD$62.75 per dollar, which represents a year-on-year depreciation of 2.33%, higher than the expectation recorded in the previous three surveys.<\/p>\n
The experts of the monetary entity attribute this evolution mainly to monetary policy decisions, the international environment, and the demand for foreign currency in the coming months. <\/p>\n
Also, analysts anticipate a year-on-year depreciation of 3.75% at 12 months and 3.46% at 24 months, both lower than the estimates of the previous survey.<\/p>\n
These projections imply an exchange rate of RD$64.09 for the end of August 2026 and RD$66.69 for August 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
