Particularly monitored market segments are the interbank market (purchase/sale transactions of foreign currency performed by the commercial banks between themselves) and the intrabank market (purchase/sale transactions of foreign currency performed between the banks and their clients).
The information related to the non-cash foreign exchange market is computed based on the Reports on the Amounts of Foreign Currency Purchased and Sold by the Bank against Moldovan Lei, which are submitted to the National Bank of Moldova according to the Regulation on setting up the official exchange rate of the Moldovan Leu against foreign currencies (approved by the decision of the Council of Administration of the National Bank of Moldova nr. 3 as of January 15, 2009).
Operations are reflected at the transaction date.

The information regarding the non-cash foreign exchange market is published on a monthly basis until the last day of the next reporting month.
