Unlicensed Money-Changers Will Be Banned: Central Bank

Hasibullah Noori, the spokesman of the Central Bank of Afghanistan, said that all money changers who have a legal license can continue their activities as in the past, but small-time money changers must also receive a license to continue their work.

The spokesman of the Central Bank of the country said: "Several money changers have been operating illegally. Based on the decision of the Central Bank of Afghanistan, the process of banning all money changers who are operating without a license has been started."

On the other hand, the money changers of Shahzada Palace in Kabul have said that there is a need to create a regular solution for the activities of money changers so that they do not remain unemployed.

 Abdul Rahman Zirak, the spokesman of  the Sarai Shahzada Money Exchange, told TOLOnews: "We want a solution regarding this issue that will satisfy the Central Bank and the money changers and unlicensed money changers."

Shams Rahman Ahmadzai, an economic analyst, and an expert on economic issues, said: "The people of Afghanistan are facing an economic crisis. With the implementation of this notification, a thousand people who work in this sector will be unemployed."

Previously, the economic commission headed by Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, deputy prime minister for economic affairs, considered the plan prepared by the central bank for money changers as feasible. Based on this plan, money changers must pay 5 million afghani as a guarantee to receive their activity license, and money service companies must provide a guarantee of 50 million afghani to the Central Bank.
