The Russian Ruble depreciated against the U.S. dollar in the
European session on Friday, after Russia's central bank lowered its
key rate by 25 basis points to a new record low and signaled more
reductions as the economy is expected to follow a gradual recovery
from the downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
The Board of Directors, led by Governor Elvira Nabiullina,
decided to reduce the benchmark rate to 4.25 percent from 4.50
percent. The decision came in line with economists'
expectations.
The bank said it will consider the necessity of further key rate
reduction at its upcoming meetings.
The Russian Ruble weakened to a 4-day low of 72.00 against the
greenback, from yesterday's closing value of 71.24. The Ruble may
challenge support around the 75.00 level.
