AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> THE shilling started the week at a low-key after slight depreciation by three percentage points (pips) in five days ending last Friday.<\/p>\n

The shilling is projected to remain steady throughout the week following moderate activity from larger importers which were cushioned with inflows from agricultural sector and charities.<\/p>\n

The shilling lost 3 pips on the Interbank Foreign Exchange Market (IFEM), to close the week at a weighted average exchange rate of 2,309\/08 against the US dollar.<\/p>\n

NMB Bank said they observed a quite trading session on Monday, with moderate activity from larger importers.<\/p>\n

\u201cInflows from agri-sectors and charities continue being the main support to the current demand from importers, the local market is anticipated to remain steady throughout the week,\u201d NMB said in its e-Market report.<\/p>\n

Orbit Securities said the shilling maintained strength last week, with a rather slight depreciation on a weekly basis.<\/p>\n

Despite losing its grip last week, the shilling had previously maintained strength after appreciating for the fifth week in a row on the Interbank Foreign Exchange Market (IFEM).<\/p>\n

The shilling thus closed the last month at a stable note, while demand for dollars is still being observed from manufacturers and oil marketing companies (OMCs) in particular.<\/p>\n

And, the shilling trades around 2,309\/- since the beginning of this month.<\/p>\n

For the week ending last week, the value of transactions traded at IFEM also rose by 17.5 per cent week on week, to a total of 11.63million US dollars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
