AOA Market Update
05 Aug 2026 • 00:39 GMT
The Angolan Kwanza (AOA) remains fairly steady against the US dollar, trading near 0.001092, close to its 3-month average. The currency has been confined within a narrow range between 0.001089 and 0.001096, indicating limited recent volatility.
Recent support for the Kwanza includes Angola’s central bank injecting $250 million into the foreign exchange market in October 2024, helping the currency recover from long-term lows. Additionally, the bank's confidence in currency stability has been bolstered by slowing inflation and positive economic activity. Meanwhile, forecasts from Standard Bank in April 2024 predicted a slowdown in depreciation for 2024, expecting the Kwanza to appreciate against the US dollar.
Despite these factors, USD remains strong globally, driven by geopolitical tensions and energy market developments. These influences may limit abrupt movements in the AOA/USD rate. For now, the Kwanza's stability signals a cautious but stable environment for traders and businesses. Keep an eye on global developments and Angola’s economic indicators, which could influence future currency movements.
