Central Bank Governor Hector Valdez Albizu declared yesterday that the country has sufficient US dollars to satisfy local demand and warned “sectors interested” in de-stabilizing the exchange market that they would lose their money if they tried to speculate with the US currency, because the monetary authority will not allow the rate to increase. Valdez Albizu mentioned Andres Dauhajre, Jr and Fundacion Economia y Desarrollo as some of the parties interested in creating panic in the exchange market. He pointed out that the Dominican Petroleum Refinery (Refidomsa) does not need dollars from the local market, that the foreign debt payments for the next three months are covered, that commercial banks have a US$356 million surplus of the currency and the Central Bank has reserves higher than required by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). He informed that he will be traveling to Washington today on a mission of the government’s economic team to finalize the revision of the first two quarters of the IMF agreement.
