The US dollar has recorded measured moves against emerging market currencies alongside a formal rate cut from the Bank of Mexico.

Portafolio reports the US dollar closed the trading week in Colombia up nearly 50 COP, with a recorded spot rate of 3237.90 COP.[^1] [^2]

The Bank of Mexico Governing Board reduced the benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points to 6.25% on 2026-11-03. El Financiero states the board cited stable inflation and exchange rates for the decision.[^3]

El Financiero carries a projection for a potential additional 25 basis point cut by early 2027, contingent on sustained inflation trends and Federal Reserve policy.[^4]

Lenta.ru reports the Central Bank of Russia raised the official US dollar exchange rate by 62 kopecks to 82.75 rubles.[^5]
