Rupee Weakens Further Against US Dollar in Early Week Trading

The Sri Lankan Rupee recorded a further decline against the US Dollar today (January 19), continuing its downward movement from last Friday.

Central Bank data show that the dollar’s buying rate has risen to Rs. 305.95 from Rs. 305.67, while the selling rate increased from Rs. 313.20 to Rs. 313.49. The latest figures reflect a modest but steady depreciation of the local currency.In addition to the US Dollar, the rupee also posted minor fluctuations against several other foreign currencies, including those of Gulf nations.
