This latest delivery is part of a broader strategic plan for 2026, during which the Central Bank expects to receive a total of 21 billion dinars. This follows an overarching initiative to print 60 billion dinars, a move necessitated by the bank’s successful withdrawal of approximately 47 billion dinars from circulation throughout 2025 as part of its monetary stabilization efforts.
