Swipe to see the data 📊 | The official dollar keeps its pace in Venezuela 🇻🇪💸
June kicked off with a marked acceleration in the official exchange market. The Central Bank of Venezuela (BCV) reported consecutive daily increases during the first week of the month, solidifying the devaluation of the bolívar.
🚨 New all-time highs:
🗓️ June 1: 554.42 Bs/USD
🗓️ June 2: 557.97 Bs/USD
🗓️ June 3: 558.64 Bs/USD
🗓️ June 4: 560.37 Bs/USD
🗓️ June 5 (LAST CLOSING): 563.29 Bs/USD 📈
💡 Key takeaway: Just between January and the first days of June 2026, the accumulated annual variation of the official exchange rate is already nearing +89%. This speed directly pressures citizens' wallets against a stagnant legal minimum wage.
🏦 What's the BCV's plan?
To try to curb the escalation and stabilize the exchange desks, it's estimated that the issuing entity will significantly ramp up its currency injection strategy, planning a massive currency intervention of $1.7 billion during June.
The official euro closed the week at 654.87 Bs/EUR. 💶
