Iran is facing significant challenges in supporting its local currency, the rial, which has experienced a sharp decline against the dollar due to economic pressures and sanctions. Inflation has risen to approximately 69.9% in August, and demand for foreign currency is increasing to meet import needs. In an attempt to stem the rial's downward trend, the Central Bank has decided to allocate two billion dollars to address market fluctuations, emphasizing that financial reserves are available, although no specific timing or intervention mechanism has been set. It is worth noting that Iran has managed to maintain its oil exports despite sanctions and possesses various financial tools and flows outside domestic banking systems, giving it the ability to intervene temporarily. However, experts believe that injecting two billion dollars will not alter the long-term trend, and maintaining currency stability requires deeper reforms to address the underlying causes of its decline—such as weak production and sustainable foreign currency inflows.
