The dollar exchange rate may reach 100 rubles by the end of 2024.
Such growth is possible, but it is not a baseline scenario.
Alfa-Forex CEO Guzel Protsenko spoke about this in an interview with the Prime agency.
According to the expert, such growth is observed when unexpected negative events occur.
She included the conflict in the Middle East and new sanctions against the Russian Federation among such events.
Increased demand from importers for dollars or problems with payments abroad could also lead to an increase in the exchange rate to 100 rubles.
The expert emphasized that such growth of the dollar could occur in December.
It is expected that the average dollar exchange rate will remain within the range of 87-97 rubles by the end of the year.
Protsenko summed up that the dollar exchange rate could reach 100 rubles by the end of the year, although this is unlikely without significant external factors.
