According to the statement, the governor of the Central Bank stressed “the need to make efforts to achieve fluidity and provide the best banking services to the bank’s customers.”
The governor pointed out that “the Central Bank’s continued opening of multiple external channels in foreign and Arab currencies achieves continuous stability in the exchange rate and gradually eliminates the black market.”
