ь Due to information about forecast USD exchange rate against KGS, published by some mass media on January 18, 2011, the National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic informs that this information is far from being true. In the Kyrgyz Republic there is the regime of floating exchange rate, which provides formation of the exchange rate on the basis of market mechanisms, i.e. depending on demand and supply of the foreign currency by some moment in the domestic foreign exchange market. Central banks of countries, where there is the floating exchange rate, including the National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic, do not announce forecasts about exchange rate.
