Contradictory data

The original RBC-Ukraine material contains an internal inconsistency: in the paragraph devoted to the "highest dollar purchase rate," after listing the dollar quotes (44.50 / 44.43 / 44.40 / 44.35 UAH) come the figures 51.60, 51.59, and 51.50 UAH, which by magnitude and context correspond to euro purchase rates, not the dollar's. Presumably, an editorial layout error mixed up two blocks of data. In addition, the same RBC-Ukraine issue carries a link to a related article titled "Dollar stalls, euro falls: NBU rate for September 9," which formally contradicts the main article, where both the dollar and the euro are rising at commercial banks. The discrepancy is explainable: the official NBU rate and commercial bank quotes can diverge, but for the reader this creates confusion about the direction of currency movement.

Context and caveats

The data provided reflect the situation as of the morning of September 9, 2026, and may change during the day depending on liquidity, transaction volumes, and National Bank decisions. The spread between purchase and sale rates at different banks ranges from 40 to 60 kop. for the dollar and from 40 to 100 kop. for the euro, which significantly affects the final cost of exchange for large transaction amounts.
