Speaking at a meeting with Minister of Finance and Deputy Prime Minister of Slovakia Peter Kažimír, the Governor of the Central Bank of Iran Valiollah Seif said Iran’s credit rating during sanction years was B+ according to Fitch international ratings agency; “by taking new measures, the country’s credit rating will at least get promoted to its earlier state.”
Seif further suggested the formation of a banking delegation to provide the ground for banking and brokerage relations between the two countries.
Stressing the Slovakian banks can participate in Iran, CBI governor enumerated possible venues for banking cooperation between the two countries including establishment of agencies and branches as well as holding 40-percent participation in the stock of Iranian banks.
