The dollar began Monday with another decline in Mexico and a sharper drop in Colombia. However, not everyone will find lower prices when exchanging money: in Bogotá, exchange houses slightly increased their buying and selling rates. The Dominican Republic, meanwhile, starts the week with no changes.
- Why it matters: The official reference rate is not always the rate a person receives when exchanging dollars. Monday’s differences are important for people who receive remittances, buy dollars, or convert their income into local currency.
