The depreciation of the kwanza is seen in the fact of existing decrease in foreign currency resources, caused by the fall in oil export revenue, the main source of revenue in the country.

In its August 8th Edition, Jornal Expansão says that Euro costs 687.1 kwanzas at official market, while in the Luanda streets one Euro costs 880.5 Akz.

This represents a difference of 28.1% compared to the rates conducted by the official foreign currency market.

Justifying the move, the central bank stated that the flexible exchange rate regime has the advantage of allowing the correction of distortions. “In this way, the exchange rate policy will continue its course, in view of the objectives set by the Executive”, said BNA.
