Therefore, based on the implementation of the outcomes of fundamental trends analysis of the exchange rate strengthening, the evaluation of the balance of payments current account balance in the medium term, it is necessary to review the tactics of achieving the inflation target taking into account negative risks, in particular by limiting the NBU presence in the domestic currency market, raising the role of the interest rate, strengthening the requirements to banks for reserve policy, etc.
