Examining the General Policies of Development Plans After the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Revolution

The systematic examination of the progression of policy content types within developmental plans indicates that policymakers in the field of development have consistently allocated half of their policy guidelines to public policies. This suggests an ongoing effort to address and resolve executive issues and problems within these developmental plans.

Exchange Rate Fluctuation Dynamics in Iranian Economy

Iran's long-standing exchange rate volatility, marked by a persistent upward trend throughout the past century, has intensified in the latter half of the 20th century. These exchange rate shocks have primarily stemmed from various protectionist and regulatory policies implemented by successive Iranian governments. The prevalence of multiple exchange rates, attempts to suppress exchange rates through administrative measures, and the fixation of exchange rates have all contributed to these fluctuations. A notable turning point occurred in 2018 when the Iranian government introduced a preferential exchange rate of 4200 alongside the prevailing market rate, in response to the United States' withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and the subsequent need to manage the foreign exchange market.

As per the data from UNCTAD and domestic sources, it is observed that over the past two decades, the annual foreign investment in Iran has oscillated between 1 and 5 billion dollars. However, the potential for attracting foreign capital has seen a decline due to a myriad of internal and external risks coupled with investment barriers.
