USD to RUB 2026 Forecasts

Analysis of recent dollar → ruble forecasts for 2026. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest US dollar to Russian ruble performance and trends.

 

USD/RUB Outlook:

Bearish, as the rate is below the recent average and positioned near recent lows.

Key drivers:

• Rate gap: The Federal Reserve's decision to hold interest rates steady contrasts with the Bank of Russia's adjustments, putting pressure on the USD.

• Risk/commodities: The decline in oil prices is reducing Russia's export revenues, thus negatively impacting the ruble's value.

• One macro factor: New U.S. sanctions targeting Russian financial institutions have increased volatility in the forex market, affecting the ruble's performance.

Range:

Expect USD/RUB to hold steady within the recent range, facing challenges to move upward.

What could change it:

• Upside risk: A stronger-than-expected U.S. economic indicator could boost the USD.

• Downside risk: Any further intensification of sanctions or geopolitical tensions could lead to a deeper depreciation of the ruble.
