July 23, Fineko/abc.az. Since the beginning of this year, supply in the Azerbaijani foreign exchange market has exceeded demand in both cash and non-cash segments.

ABC.AZ reports, referring to the Central Bank of Azerbaijan (CBA), that the continued decline in the level of dollarization of deposits of resident individuals indicates optimistic expectations regarding the exchange rate. The indicators of the external sector, based on the balance of the foreign exchange market, remain favorable.

"According to the State Customs Committee, positive foreign trade balance of $1.4 billion was recorded in the first 6 months of 2025. CBA's forecast of the current account surplus in the balance of payments for 2025 and 2026 remains unchanged," the CBA says.
