US dollar stabilizes against Kuwaiti dinar


24/05/2012 08:43 AST  KUNA

Exchange rate of the US dollar against the Kuwaiti dinar on Wednesday stabilized at KD 0.279, but the euro fell to KD 0.354, compared to Tuesday's figures, said the daily bulletin of the Central Bank of Kuwait (CBK).

Exchange rate of the Sterling pound dropped to KD 0.440, however the Japanese yen remained stable, at KD 0.003, whereas the Swiss franc slipped to KD 0.295.

The greenback has remained dominant banknote, among the major currencies, amid fears about Greece's prospected withdrawal from the euro zone, thus investors viewed, anew, the American currency as a safe option.
