Consolidation continued on the earlier reached levels. Today the National bank was known to retain refinancing rate at the previous level (10.5 %) since October 1, 2008, having motivated this decision by market's stabilization and confidence in decreasing inflationary pressure in short-term prospect. Note that situation on international market remains tense. Doubtless depreciating of USD to other currencies in case of adoption of $700 bn. Government measures on financial system support plan, will force energy recourses prices to grow. It in turn may affect domestic market by growth of prices on foodstuff and transportation.
