Over the next three years, the hryvnia will gradually depreciate, and the dollar, accordingly, will rise in price.
Such forecasts were laid by the government in the draft Budget Resolution until 2020.
At its meeting on Friday, the Cabinet approved the document, according to "Economic Truth".
The Ministry of Finance calculated the parameters of the general fund of the state budget on the basis that the exchange rate of the hryvnia (on average for the year) in 2018 will be 29.3 hryvnia per dollar, in 2019 - 30.5 hryvnia per dollar, in 2020 - 31 hryvnia per dollar.
The official exchange rate of the dollar as of June 16 is 26 hryvnias.
Recall that the government forecast for 2017 is based on the fact that the economy will grow at least 3% with a budget deficit of 3%, inflation of 8.1% and an average annual rate of UAH 27.2 per dollar.
