The central bank announced the terms of payment of foreign currency claims of importers. The central bank responded to a collective letter of associations and organizations active in the field of importing basic products: in recent years, the mechanism for providing preferential currency for basic products was such that importers imported goods needed by the country and the government undertook to provide the currency related to this import at a preferential rate of 28,500 tomans per dollar. Therefore, the obligation to provide foreign exchange resources for payment of preferred currency to importers of basic goods is essentially the responsibility of the government, and the central bank has assumed the role of intermediary and executive agent of the government in this mechanism. Regarding the requirements mentioned by the importing organizations, it is necessary to determine the final allocation of the related obligations and to provide the foreign exchange resources necessary to fulfill these obligations. It is clear that providing foreign exchange at a preferential rate of 28,500 tomans to settle these claims requires the allocation of foreign exchange resources from the government to the central bank, and until this is achieved, the central bank will not be able to meet the aforementioned obligations. the channel.
