INSTEX, meet STFI: Iran’s finance chiefs make a constructive start to the New Year. There has been universal frustration with the pace of European progress to rebuild the financial relationships that were damaged by the US withdrawal from the nuclear deal. But the Iranian New Year kicked off with a more positive tone. The Special Trade and Finance Institute (SFTI), set up by the Central Bank of Iran, mirrors Europe’s own Special Purpose Vehicle for facilitating Iran-Europe trade. Practical steps remain for both sides to persuade businesses to make use of it.   Iran marked the New Year with a bold statement of intent for its engagement with the global economy. The Central Bank of Iran (CBI) officially established a payments mechanism to match and work with the Europe Union’s Special Purpose Vehicle for facilitating cross-border payments. The new mechanism, labelled the Special Trade and Finance Institute (STFI) was announced on the last working day of the Iranian cal

اولتیماتوم بدون ملاحظه ایران

ایران از سوی برجام معامله زیان آوری داشته است. بعد از رعایت دقیق در برنامه اتمی خود این معامله ادغام مجدد مالی و اقتصادی که وعده داده شده است را به وجود نیاورد. بر عکس آن موانعی که قبل از آن پیش روی شرکت های ایرانی وجود داشت به اوج سطوح قبل از برجام باز میگردند. اما حتی بدون شامل بودن آمریکا برجام هنوز نشان دهنده بهترین راه حل میان تا دراز مدت برای ایران است. عمل کردن بر خلاف شرایط آن نامعقولانه خواهد بود که باعث از بین رفتن حسن نیت بین المللی که تا به حال ایران به دست آورده است خواهد شد. تصمیم گیری تهران در فرسایش تعهد خود به برجام برای جامعه شرکت های ایرانی نا امید کننده بوده است . بسیاری در ایران برای موضع دولت همدردی میکنند. ادامه رعایت تعهد به برجام   با تناقض دولت آقای ترامپ در آمریکا و آهستگی در د ناک وهر چند حمایت کننده واکنش اتحادیه اروپا برخورد کرده است. ولی علیرغم حس غیر عادلانه شرکت ها نگران موضع جدید ایران میباشند. در حالیکه درگیر رکود اقتصادی عمیق هستند عدم تعامل با قوانین برجام مطمئنا ً ایجاد انزوای اقتصادی بیشتری خواهد بود. ریال ایران بیش از ٪٦٠ ار

Issue 86 | May 2019 | Iran's Reckless Ultimatum

Iran’s reckless ultimatum Iran has seen a raw deal from the JCPOA. After strict compliance in its nuclear programme, the deal has not delivered the financial and economic reintegration it promised. On the contrary, the obstacles facing Iranian businesses are returning to the levels of the pre-JCPOA peak. But even without US involvement, the deal still represents the best medium- to long- term solution for Iran. It would be foolish to burn the international goodwill Iran has earned by reneging on its terms. Tehran’s decision to erode its commitment to the JCPOA has come as a great disappointment to the Iranian business community. There is sympathy for the government’s position from many in Iran. The country’s continued compliance with the terms of the nuclear deal has been met with antagonism by the US Trump administration and a painfully slow, albeit supportive, response from the European Union. But despite the sense of unfairness, businesses are concerned about the im
