The LKR/USD pair shows how many Sri Lankan Rupees are needed to buy one US Dollar, reflecting trade, remittances, and monetary policy between Sri Lanka and the United States.
Each row combines a UTC date, a rate and the change from the previous available observation. A positive change means the base currency buys more of the quote currency than on the previous available date.
Days without a quotation are not interpolated: the series keeps only observations that were actually received.
Compare several periods before a trip, an international transfer or a foreign-currency invoice. The average, minimum and maximum provide a quick reference, while the table enables a date-by-date check.

The LKR/USD exchange rate represents the value of the Sri Lankan Rupee against the US Dollar. This directed pair indicates how many Rupees are required to purchase one Dollar. A rise in the rate means the Rupee depreciates (weaker), making Sri Lankan exports cheaper but imports more expensive. This pair is widely used by importers, exporters, and investors exposed to Sri Lankan assets or tourism.
Structural drivers include the monetary policies of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka and the US Federal Reserve. Interest rate differentials, inflation trends, and economic growth rates influence capital flows. Sri Lanka's economy is sensitive to tourism revenues, remittances from overseas workers, and commodity prices (especially tea and textiles). The US Dollar's status as a global reserve currency and risk sentiment also affect the pair. Political stability and foreign exchange reserves are key factors for the Rupee.
Over recent years, the LKR/USD has experienced phases of volatility tied to Sri Lanka's external sector performance and policy adjustments. The pair has seen periods of gradual depreciation amid balance-of-payments pressures and episodes of relative stability following IMF programs or improved foreign inflows. Without specific historical data, the general pattern reflects the interplay of domestic vulnerabilities and global dollar strength. Traders monitor central bank interventions and economic reforms for directional cues.
