Following weeks of hovering without any
significant move up or down, the dollar
moved up to ¢8 colones in yesterday's
trading, according to the latest posting of
the Colon/Dollar exchange rate by the Banco
Central de Costa Rica (BCCR) - Central Bank.
The colon/dollar sell rate opened Tuesday

banks had posted the sell rate as high as
¢589, ¢8 colones more than the opening rate.
Both the Banco Nacional (BN) and the Banco
de Costa Rica (BCR) led the trading, while
private banks followed suit, not to be left
behind.
The Central Bank opened today's sell rate at
¢586.94.
