Data for June 26th wasn't released due to the Armed Forces Day in Azerbaijan.

According to the CBA's annual report, the manat's exchange rate against foreign currencies in 2025 was determined based on the balance of supply and demand in the foreign exchange market.

It was noted that throughout the year, the official exchange rate of the manat against the US dollar was determined based on the average rate of interbank transactions (including auctions and non-auction transactions on the Bloomberg platform) and averaged 1.7 manat per day.

"The foreign currency purchase and sale rates set by commercial banks were set within a range close to the official rate. Thus, the average daily purchase rate by banks was 1.6948 manat per US dollar, and the selling rate was 1.7018 manat. The average daily purchase rate per US dollar differed from the official rate by 0.31%, and the selling rate by 0.11%," the report said.

In 2025, the CBA held 98 foreign exchange auctions to sell foreign currency by the State Oil Fund of Azerbaijan (SOFAZ).

"At these auctions, market demand for foreign currency was fully met. Overall, stability in the foreign exchange market continued to play a key role in ensuring price stability during the reporting year. In 2025, purchases of cash foreign currency by exchange offices exceeded sales by $423 million. A decrease in the dollarization of resident individual deposits in 2025 by 2.6 percentage points to 28% indicates optimistic expectations regarding the exchange rate. Under these conditions, the foreign exchange reserves of the CBA grew in 2025," added the report.
