As we said in the morning comment, the major factors are - energy reserves falling pries, observed since July and liquidity crises, which covered almost all countries. Judging by preliminary IRBIS data, banking system of the country is to mature $1.7 bn. foreign debt during the last two years. Taking into account absence of any possible debt refinancing, the banks are going to mature the most part by their own reserves, what will retain high currency demand on domestic market. We forecast continuation of upward trend at this week. [2008-11-03]
