Factors influencing the exchange rate of the Syrian lira
Economists told Al -Jazeera Net that the exchange rate of the Syrian pound is affected by many factors at this stage, including:
- Low of the offer from the Syrian pound in exchange for increasing demand for it.
- High cost of obtaining liquidity in the Syrian currency.
- Restricting cash withdrawal from banks.
- The increase in the activity of the trade movement, which raised the demand for the Syrian pound, and increased its value during the last period, compared to the time of the fall of the Baath Party regime.
- The former regime army and its security apparatus resolved, and a large number of fictitious employees from state institutions were removed, which reduced the offer of the lira in the market.
- The external visits of Syrian President Ahmed Al -Shara to Saudi Arabia and Turkey, which increased the hopes of achieving economic gains, and Sharia received calls to visit from many countries, including European countries.
- European Union countries and the United States have eased 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.
