Foreign investors can now trade their currencies directly within Iran’s “Second Hall” at the Currency and Gold Exchange Center, marking a significant step in opening the country’s financial markets to international capital. Approved by the Central Bank and supervised by the Organization for Investment, Economic, and Technical Assistance, this move aims to streamline foreign investment procedures and foster greater liquidity.
