Iran eyes return to SWIFT system, foreign stakes in privatisations | GulfNews.com:



"Iran expects to rejoin the international electronic payment system SWIFT three months after sanctions imposed on it are lifted and it will also become easier for foreign firms to take part in privatisations in Iran, a senior Iranian official said.



His remarks suggested Iran’s long isolated but high-potential, energy-based economy will be open for investment once sanctions are removed as a result of its July 14 deal with world powers placing limits on its disputed nuclear programme. 




Industry Minister Mohammad Reza Nematzadeh also said Iran’s foreign reserves total between $115 billion (Dh463.5 billion) and $125 billion, including assets in its sovereign wealth fund."
