Banks Economy News - Follow-up The Central Bank of Syria announced the regulations that must be followed by citizens and customers when submitting old Syrian pound banknotes to authorized entities for exchange for new banknotes, as part of the ongoing preparations for the upcoming exchange process.
The bank explained that these procedures aim to accelerate and simplify the replacement process in coordination with all relevant parties, stressing the importance of adhering to the correct arrangement of banknotes in bundles, so that each bundle contains banknotes of the same denomination and issue, and that the number of pieces in each bundle does not exceed 100 banknotes.
The bank explained that customers must arrange banknotes symmetrically so that the face is facing up in all bundles, while damaged banknotes must be sorted into separate bundles according to the same controls, with proof that they are damaged being provided, according to the Syrian News Agency “SANA”.
The bank stressed that compliance with these instructions contributes to saving time and effort for citizens and concerned parties, and enhances the cooperation necessary to make the replacement process a success and ensure that it proceeds smoothly and quickly.
66 Companies And 1,000 Outlets
The Governor of the Central Bank of Syria, Abdul Qader al-Hasriya, announced that there will be ease and flexibility in exchanging the new national currency, the Syrian pound, as the exchange will be done through 66 companies and a thousand outlets dedicated to this purpose.
Al-Hasri said that the new denominations of the Syrian currency will start with six denominations: 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, and 500 liras, with the new lira being equivalent to one hundred old liras, while the 500 new liras is equivalent to 50,000 old liras, noting that this contributes to making it easier to carry money and the money supply remains without additions.
