Experts note:

— The total volume of household deposits has exceeded the psychological threshold of 25 billion rubles. The key trend is steady growth in confidence in the national currency: 70% of all deposits today are placed in Belarusian rubles.

This is a clear reflection of the process of de-dollarization of the economy and people's growing confidence in the stability of the national currency.

The trend is visible not only in the structure of deposits, but also in settlements — more and more transactions between businesses and citizens, as well as in foreign economic activity, are conducted in rubles.

The population increasingly chooses the ruble both as a means of saving and as an instrument for everyday payments.

According to IMF estimates, over recent years the dollar has lost about twenty percentage points in the structure of international reserves of countries around the world.

Against this backdrop, work to strengthen one's own financial stability and diversify reserves is especially important.
