Nabiullina: market players should not be forced to have deals in rubles

Russia's Central Bank chairperson Elvira Nabiullina said that the central bank and the government should not force market players to have their deals in rubles, making ruble deals profitable instead.

"To make the ruble attractive for settlements, we have to make sure that the purchasing power of the ruble does not depreciate, inflation is low and of course a low ruble volatility for its use in international settlements," she said at the Russia Calling! business forum.

Nabiullina added that this is is a very important factor in making the ruble attractive, PRIME reported.
