Offering $15 million to the market; Taliban-controlled central bank tries to keep Afghani stable
According to the official exchange rate of the bank, today each US dollar is bought at 70.95 afghanis and sold at 71.15 afghanis.
In recent weeks, the Afghan currency has not changed significantly against the dollar. However, late last year, the dollar rose in the Afghan market as US aid was cut and Donald Trump returned to power.
The Taliban's central bank has been injecting millions of dollars into the market in recent months to try to prevent the depreciation of the national currency.
The Taliban-controlled central bank of Afghanistan said it would issue $15 million in foreign currency on Tuesday (April 5) to control the exchange rate and maintain stability in the Afghan currency. This amount is sold through auction.
