On Wednesday, the National Bank of Romania (BNR) announced a reference rate of 4.0041 RON per USD, the first time it has ever exceeded the 4 RON threshold.

The EUR/RON rate is 4.4542 and the Swiss Franc/RON is 4.1595.

The depreciation of the RON against the Dollar appeared because of the appreciation of the Dollar against the Euro, given that the European Central Bank has launched a campaign of quantitative easing, and that in the US an increase in interest rates is expected.

The European currency has reached its maximum of the month. A higher rate was reached on the 28th of January, 2015, when the BNR announced a rate of 4.4585 RON/EUR.

According to the BNR, the average USD/RON rate was 3.34 in 2014 and 3.32 in 2013.
