Abstract
It is worth starting with the fact that, according to the authors, in the post-war period, the optimal exchange rate policy is to return to a floating currency regime in future. At the beginning of the full-scale invasion in February 2022, the National Bank was forced to fix the course in order to avoid panic and support the economy and financial activity of the country. Such actions had a positive result in the first months of the war. However, in the long term, fixing the exchange rate will lead to deepening of the country's economic problems. Thus, the exchange rate of the dollar is an indicator of the purchasing power of the population, the level of competitiveness of goods of national producers, inflationary expectations, etc. In the conditions of a fixed foreign currency regime, there is an accumulation of economic imbalances that are not reflected in the dynamics of the exchange rate.
