Iran Transportation Sector seeks renovation!

– As a part of President Rouhani’s transportation fleet renewal plan to reduce air pollution and fuel consumption, Iran’s truck fleet is to be renewed, which can pave grounds for resuming correspondent banking relations between Iran and Sweden. As estimated, this plan provides an investment opportunity worth EUR 5 mn, that in case financed by the Swedish party, might go beyond a mere business collaboration. In this regard, a Swedish delegation, made up of practitioners in financial services, insurance, banking, etc. fields, is also planned to pay a visit to the country on April 18th, to sit with members of Tehran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture.

Tehran Stock Exchange; a 27% rise! – Daily Market News

Tehran Stock Exchange; a 27% rise!

Market News

– In an interview, the head of the Securities and Exchange Organization of Iran enumerated the reasons for the 27% growth of the Tehran Stock Exchange major index (TEDPIX) in the current year. Referring to the whole trading value (4 exchange markets) exceeding IRR 2,100,000 (cUSD 47 bn) bn, he firstly mentioned President Rouhani’s administration’s economic policies to lower interest rate on banking deposits, which also dragged bonds yield rate and therefore, financing costs for companies down as well. Another factor was companies’ profitability growth, mostly due to facilities offered by the government and global commodity prices soar. A part of this growth was due to the USD/IRR increase, which raised export-oriented companies’ income. Applying changes to the halting-reopening mechanism of the market to accelerate the whole process played another crucial role by increasing the market liquidity. To all these, the reduction in trading commission must also be noted, which will show its positive effect in the long run.
