High ask on the side of separate banks, which is likely to be aroused by necessity of foreign debt maturity (total volume of maturity in June makes about $750 m. according to bank system), provoked confident growth of American currency rate during the KASE main session. Damping position of National Bank supported the national currency. On a day session IRBIS specialists forecast trades within price range that of the morning session. Rate growth will be restrained by the last in this month tax payments (corporate income tax for May) and evening exchange rate fluctuation policy of the head bank. The dollar was quoted at 120.83/85 at the KASE day session at 11:56 a.m.; the last deal was concluded at 120.83. The dollar was quoted at 120.83/85 on over-the-counter. [2008-06-25]
