Meanwhile, the exchange rate for dollars per euro at the close is USD 1.16. In the last two years, the euro has depreciated against the Uruguayan currency. This was explained by various internal and external economic factors. Among these factors, the monetary policy pursued by the European Central Bank (ECB) with ultra-low interest rates in response to the COVID-19 pandemic stands out. The ECB then began to raise rates to combat inflation, and now there are expectations that it will begin to lower them. At the same time, the Central Bank of Uruguay (BCU) maintained high interest rates to combat inflation and defend the national currency, and only began to lower them in the second half of 2023. The factors that can influence the euro exchange rate are as follows: Monetary policy of the ECB, which prints the euros that circulate around the world. BCU monetary policy: interest rate provisions and measures to manage inflation can affect the demand and supply of Uruguayan pesos. International market developments: geopolitical events, fluctuations in commodity prices, and changes in other countries' economic policies can influence the euro exchange rate. Local economic indicators: economic growth, the level of foreign investment, and the performance of the export sector are some of the internal factors that can impact the dollar exchange rate in Uruguay. It should be noted that the currency we normally use for spending is the Uruguayan peso (or, failing that, dollars for some imported goods). Therefore, it is advisable to use the currency in which you are going to spend. In any case, to protect yourself from rising prices, it is best to save in Indexed Units (UI), as they evolve in line with inflation. There are different options for saving and investing in IU.
