Sept 1 - Accelerating inflation will force Russia to maintain double-digit interest rates deep into next year, a Reuters poll showed on Friday, while the rouble has limited prospects to stage any kind of significant recovery in the coming 12 months.
Exporters also increased selling of their foreign currency revenue following discussions with Russian authorities in a turbulent month for the rouble, which still remains outside the 80-90 range against the dollar that the government has named as preferable. The average forecast of 12 analysts and economists polled in late August now expect inflation to hit 6.5% by year-end, up from 5.6% forecast a month ago, and well above the central bank's 4% target.
