Tunisia-Ridha Chkoundali: “new Foreign Exchange Code must be accompanied by revision of Investment Code” (Declaration)

In response to the presentation of the main lines of the draft of the new Foreign Exchange Code, academic Ridha Chkoundali estimated, in a statement to Tunisie Numérique, that it was first required to submit an economic vision to set the goals to be achieved.

The objective, according to him, is to provide a certain consistency between the economic vision and the new laws.

“The liberalization provided for in this new draft of the Exchange Code needs to be part of a vision of freedom in a global aspect. The new Exchange Code must be accompanied by a revision of the Investment Code. The contrast could present a risk to the Tunisian dinar if demand for foreign currencies increases,” recommends Chkondali.
