Syrian pound strengthens by 20% as Assad government falls, controls ease, and expats return.
The Syrian pound has strengthened by about 20% against the US dollar in the last two days following the fall of the Assad government.
This improvement is due to Syrians returning from Lebanon and Jordan and the lifting of strict foreign currency trade controls.
Despite this, Syria remains in a severe economic crisis, with over 90% of the population living in poverty.
The reasons for the pound's strengthening are not entirely clear, but it may be linked to reduced demand for US dollars and increased demand for Syrian pounds.
