Why is it better to buy euros rather than dollars
As the expert explained, recently Russians have increasingly encountered problems when exchanging old dollars abroad. This is especially true for hundred-dollar bills.
The fact is that it is planned to gradually withdraw from circulation hundred-dollar bills issued before 2013.
According to Solovykh, for trips abroad it is better to buy euros rather than dollars.
The design of the most popular eurozone banknotes was changed just 5 years ago, which suggests that it will remain relevant for some time to come, writes Bankiros.ru .
For reference
