The Bank of Russia has set the official US dollar exchange rate at 78.0308 rubles for the period of July 25-27, 2026.

This represents a decline of 37.41 kopecks from the previous session's fixing, indicating a marginal strengthening of the ruble against the greenback.

The euro saw a more significant adjustment, with the central bank lowering its official rate by 55.16 kopecks to 88.8927 rubles.

The divergence in the two fixings highlights the continued weakness of the euro relative to the dollar in the Russian interbank market.

This daily fixing is a routine administrative action by the central bank, used to calculate customs duties and taxes for importers and exporters.

The modest move in the dollar rate follows a similar pattern from earlier in the week, when the dollar was fixed at 78.3159 rubles on July 21, down just 8.28 kopecks.
