Dollar set for jump in upcoming Iranian year
Although, the central bank measure drew experts' criticism, it was effective and managed to ease the currency market tensions.
It seems that in the last months of the year, the policymakers switched to swing currency to compensate for part of their budget deficit.
However, given the relative stability of the exchange rate in the current season, forecasters do not predict a clear future for the exchange rate in the upcoming Iranian year.
In this regard, in an interview with Tejarat News, Ali Tabatabaei, an economic expert, said, "Considering the current liquidity, it is probable that the dollar price floor will be placed in the third channel of the seventh corridor for the year 1403. But I predict a further hike in the mentioned prices."
He went on to say that this is not the real price of the dollar in the market, The price of the dollar lags behind its real value.
Therefore, we will not have a price reduction, but with some measures, we can expect the possibility of stopping or maintaining a certain price by changing the fundamental parameters for the next two to three years, he concluded.
Another economic expert Peiman Molavi also believes that as long as the central bank does not control the inflation rate, the exchange rate will jump.
