- Failure to pay the salaries of retired military personnel, as well as the salaries of retirees and their families who retired in 1985 and before.
- The supply of the lira fell against the requirements of the markets, which was reinforced by the increase in commercial activity.
- The cost of obtaining the lira increased with the decrease in the supply of the Syrian currency.
- The Syrian external representation in the international gatherings, especially the external visits of President Ahmed Al -Sharaa to Saudi Arabia and Turkey, as well as the visits of Foreign Minister Asaad Al -Shaibani to several countries and his participation in international forums, increased the hopes of achieving economic gains.
- The European Union and the United States reduced their sanctions on Syria, which opened the way for transactions with government institutions and energy transactions, and allowed the transfer of personal funds to the country, including through the Central Bank of Syria.
