Knowing the dollar rate is necessary not only in order to exchange currency. The fluctuation of the exchange rate affects the state of the international market as a whole. You can use this information to invest.
Instructions
Step 1
The official dollar rate is set by the Central Bank of Russia. Information about him is updated every day and, as a rule, all information radio stations and television channels announce it. But the easiest way is to find out the most up-to-date data on the dollar exchange rate, of course, on the official website of the Central Bank. There you can immediately see the rates of other currencies, as well as their growth dynamics. In addition, the site is constantly updated with up-to-date information on prices for precious metals and rates on the credit market.
Step 2
But, if you want to buy or sell currency in banks, this information is not enough for you. Despite the single official dollar rate, each of the foreign exchange organizations has its own buy and sell rates. In each of the banks, the value of the dollar may slightly, but differ. At the same time, the currency that you sell will always be cheaper in the bank than its own. You need to find out information about prices in the banks themselves, on their websites or in branches.
Step 3
Some enterprises have their own “internal” dollar exchange rate. This advertising move is used by organizations selling real estate, cars or other large goods. It looks like this: the organization sets the "internal" dollar rate for a certain period at which the buyer can purchase the goods. That is, if an official manufacturer sells an item for $ 10, then you will buy it from a dealer not for 10 * the official rate of rubles, but for 10 * "internal rate", which will always be slightly lower than at the rates of the Central Bank. But of course, these data do not apply to the official rate.
