Costa Rica’s Central Bank (BCCR) has continued purchasing dollars for the public sector, though the amount is lower than in 2025. Despite the decrease, the recent figure represents the third-highest dollar purchase amount in the bank’s recorded history. The BCCR intervenes in the foreign exchange market to manage the country’s currency and support economic stability. This intervention often involves buying dollars to bolster reserves and mitigate fluctuations in the exchange rate. While specific details regarding the exact amount purchased weren't provided, the data suggests ongoing demand from the public sector for US currency. Experts follow these trends closely as indicators of government financial activity and potential economic pressures. The continued high levels of purchases point to sustained needs within the public sector for dollar-denominated transactions.
