Početak tranzicionog perioda srpske ekonomije praćen je visokim nivoom precenjenosti nacionalne valute. U februaru 2014. godine taj nivo apresiranosti nacionalne valute, prema baznom decembru 2000, iznosio je gotovo 40%.
Po pravilu, apresiranost nacionalne valute prati, vezuje se za spoljnotrgovinski deficit. Najviša precenjenost dinara beležena je polovinom 2008. godine kada je ostvaren najviši deficit u razmeni sa inostranstvom (865 mil. evra), pre svega zbog visokog uvoza (1590 mi. evra).
The beginning of the transition period of the Serbian economy was accompanied by a high level of overvaluation of the national currency. In February 2014, the degree of appreciation of the national currency, relative to the base period of December 2000, amounted to almost 40%.
As a rule, the appreciation of the national currency is associated with and closely linked to the foreign trade deficit. The highest level of dinar overvaluation was recorded in mid-2008, when the foreign trade deficit reached its peak (EUR 865 million), primarily due to high imports (EUR 1,590 million).
