The international reserves of Ukraine increased by 5,8% ($1.27 million) in July up to $21.8 million, as the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) reported.
The regulator notes that the growth took place due to the favorable situation at the currency market, operation of the government on management of the state debt and reassessment of the financial tools.
The NBU reminded that the incomes from the placement of the bonds of the domestic public debt made $1.005 million.
“These incomes almost entirely compensated payments of the government on the service and payment of the state and guaranteed by the state debt in the foreign currency. Last month such expenses made $1.019 million, including $941.3 million that was sent for service and payment of currency bonds of the domestic public debt and other funds were spent for the fulfillment of other commitments before the foreign creditors and international financial organizations,” the message said.
