March 14, Pozirk.<\/em><\/strong> Belarus\u2019 cash in circulation (M0) has grown by 0.4 percent since the start of 2025 and by 22 percent year on year to 11.9 billion rubels (some $3.8 billion at the current exchange rate) on March 1, the National Bank of Belarus said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transferable deposits saw an increase of 18.5 percent over the year, from 13.3 to 15.4 billion rubels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broad money supply (M3) rose by 17 percent to 87.5 billion rubels, while the rubel money supply (M2) soared by 29.2 percent to 51.3 billion rubels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year, Raman Ha\u0142o\u016d\u010danka, who at that time served as prime minister, criticized \u201cso-called experts\u201d warning about the risk of overheating. \u201cThe other side paints economic news only in a negative light for people who are not very knowledgeable about economic models,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this month, Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka put Ha\u0142o\u016d\u010danka in charge of the central bank, noting that the official had always wanted to be more involved in the banking system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts have already pointed out that Ha\u0142o\u016d\u010danka lacks appropriate training and may cause turmoil in Belarus\u2019 economy, while his ties to the military and Russia may negatively affect Belarus\u2019 finances, banking and currency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
