俄罗斯卢布兑美元汇率为81.3,自第二季度达到两年高点以来保持稳定,因为严格的资本管制和高利率抵消了新制裁的影响和俄罗斯经济增长的严峻前景。美国制裁了卢克石油公司和俄罗斯石油公司,对印度的能源出口前景造成了压力,自2022年入侵乌克兰以来,印度一直是俄罗斯石油的主要消费者之一。此外,欧盟宣布将于2027年避开俄罗斯液化天然气。尽管如此,由于克里姆林宫要求出口导向型公司出售40%的外汇收入,对货币的影响不大。此外,俄罗斯央行的降息幅度低于预期,并表示尽管对经济增长的担忧日益加剧,但将采取政策遏制通胀压力。西方制裁的长期影响、优先考虑对乌克兰战争的政府支出以及高借贷成本促使国际货币基金组织预测,俄罗斯今年的国内生产总值仅增长0.6%。
The Russian ruble was at 81.3 per USD, remaining stable since reaching two-year highs in the second quarter as strict capital controls and high interest rates offset the impact of fresh sanctions and a grim outlook on Russian growth. The US sanctioned Lukoil and Rosneft, pressuring the outlook of energy exports to India, which have been among the main consumers of Russian oil since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Also, the EU announced it would shun Russian LNG on 2027. Still, the impact on the currency was muted as the Kremlin's mandates export-oriented companies to sell 40% of their foreign exchange revenue. Additionally, the Bank of Russia delivered a softer-than-expected cut and signaled that policy would be set to curb inflationary pressures despite mounting growth concerns. The prolonged effect of Western sanctions, government spending that prioritizes the war against Ukraine, and high borrowing costs drove the IMF to forecast that Russia's GDP will only grow 0.6% this year.
