The National Bank of Serbia (NBS) said on November 9 that the dinar’s exchange rate remains stable and that the country has sufficient foreign exchange reserves to maintain its stability, amid attention surrounding the operations of Banka Poštanska štedionica.
The dinar has depreciated by just 0.3% against the euro since the beginning of 2026, the central bank said, adding that it was using all available instruments to safeguard exchange rate stability.
“The NBS has sufficient foreign exchange reserves to continue maintaining exchange rate stability, which is in no way at risk,” the central bank said in a statement.
The NBS also addressed the operations of Banka Poštanska štedionica, saying that the bank had continued operating according to its regular business schedule over the weekend.
“The National Bank of Serbia will continue to closely monitor the bank’s operations,” it said, without providing further details.
The central bank also sought to reassure the public about the functioning of the country’s payment infrastructure, stating that all payment systems under its operation were functioning normally, without interruptions or technical difficulties.
These systems enable transactions in dinars and ensure the continuity of payment services across Serbia. The NBS said that indicators measuring the number and value of transactions between payment system participants remained at their usual levels.
The statement comes as the NBS seeks to underline the stability of Serbia’s financial and payment systems, as well as its capacity to maintain the dinar’s exchange rate against the euro.
