Since the outbreak of protests against the Bashar al-Assad regime in 2011, the Syrian pound has begun to decline, but with the escalation of economic sanctions on Syria in the past four years, the pound has witnessed a significant decline against the dollar.
According to the United Nations World Food Program, the pound has collapsed in an unprecedented manner over the past four years, specifically from 2021 to 2024.
The Syrian pound price tracking index stated that at the beginning of 2021, the price of one US dollar was about 3,000 Syrian pounds in the official and parallel markets, but with the increase in economic sanctions, the price in the official market remained stable while it rose in the black market.
The currency has become a symbol of the former regime and the period that the people are seeking to overcome, which imposes on any new government the task of redesigning the currency as part of rebuilding the national identity and starting a new era.
It is worth noting that this approach is not strange, as many countries have followed it in transitional stages, as happened in Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein and the countries of the former Soviet Union after its dissolution.
Although the actual next steps regarding changing the design of the Syrian pound were not clear, the Central Bank of Syria was keen, one day after the fall of the regime, to confirm that the Syrian pound in all its denominations is the approved currency for circulation in the country, and that no denomination had been withdrawn from circulation.
