After several days of intense activity in the informal currency market in Cuba, this Friday, the US dollar, euros, and the Convertible Currency (MLC) have started the day unchanged in their average selling value compared to the previous day, when the MLC did increase.
At 8:00 a.m. (Cuban local time), the US dollar remains valued at 365 CUP, a price it reached last week.
Also unchanged are the euro and the MLC, which are traded at an average of 380 and 265 CUP, respectively.
For the second consecutive day, the median values of the three reference currencies over the last 24 hours indicate an increase in the average selling price of the dollar, a rise that may or may not solidify in the coming hours.
The median value places the dollar sale at 367 CUP.
Exchange rate of the dollar USD to CUP according to elTOQUE: 365 CUP.
Exchange rate of the euro EUR to CUP according to elTOQUE: 380 CUP.
Exchange rate from MLC to CUP according to elTOQUE: 265 CUP.
U.S. Dollar (USD) to Cuban Peso (CUP), according to the exchange rates of April 25:
1 USD = 365 CUP.
5 USD = 1,825 CUP.
10 USD = 3,650 CUP.
20 USD = 7,300 CUP.
50 USD = 18,250 CUP.
100 USD = 36,500 CUP.
EUROS (EUR)
1 EUR = 380 CUP.
5 EUR = 1,900 CUP.
10 EUR = 3,800 CUP.
20 EUR = 7,600 CUP.
50 EUR = 19,000 CUP.
100 EUR = 38,000 CUP.
200 EUR = 76,000 CUP.
500 EUR = 190,000 CUP.
Last week, elTOQUE announced, through its Cuba Currency and Finance Observatory (OMFi), a forecast for the behavior of foreign currencies in the informal market for the remainder of the month.
According to the information provided, a valuation of the dollar and the euro is expected to range between 2.5% and 4.8%, while the MLC could drop to levels of 262 – 255 CUP per 1 MLC.
It is estimated that the dollar will range between 364 and 372 CUP, and the euro between 370 and 377 CUP.
Cubans are attentive to the informal exchange rates of the dollar, euro, and MLC because this determines their real purchasing power in an economy marked by scarcity and inflation.
The volatility of exchange rates in Cuba leads many residents on the island to closely monitor the evolution of the informal market, seeking strategies to protect their purchasing power against the devaluation of the national currency.
