The Cabinet of Ministers has forecast the dollar exchange rate for the end of 2027
The Cabinet of Ministers has included a dollar exchange rate of 48.3 hryvnia at the end of 2027 in its macroeconomic forecast. According to the government’s forecast, the average exchange rate for the entire coming year will be 47.1 hryvnia per dollar. However, this is only an estimated figure, not an exact forecast of the future exchange rate.
The Cabinet of Ministers expects the dollar to be worth about 48.3 hryvnia by the end of 2027. This figure is included in the government’s macroeconomic forecast. As of September 15, 2026, the forecast uses an exchange rate of 44.6 hryvnia per dollar. Thus, by the end of 2027, the government expects the rate to rise by approximately 3.7 hryvnia.
According to the Cabinet’s forecast, the average annual exchange rate for the dollar in 2027 will be 47.1 hryvnias. In other words, the government expects a gradual increase in the exchange rate over the next year. It is important to note that these are the calculations used when planning economic indicators and the state budget.
Does this mean the dollar will definitely be worth 48 hryvnias?
No. The figure of 48.3 hryvnia does not mean that this is exactly how much the dollar will cost at currency exchange offices or banks in December 2027. The government exchange rate is a calculated rate. It is used for economic forecasting, particularly when preparing budget indicators. The actual exchange rate will depend on the economic situation, international financial support, the state of public finances, inflation, and other factors.
Therefore, the actual exchange rate may turn out to be either lower or higher than the projected rate. It is also important to note that such long-term projections almost never match the actual daily exchange rate of the hryvnia. The economic situation can change over the course of a year, and currency rates change along with it. Thus, 48.3 hryvnia per dollar is a benchmark that the government has incorporated into its economic projections for the end of 2027—not a guaranteed exchange rate.
