Meanwhile, Professor of economics in Shahid Beheshti University Saeed Leilaz told IRNA that Iran’s return to the market shows effects of elimination of sanctions and stability in management and economic ration of the country.
Leilaz told IRNA that Iran’s return will help give a large extent upgrade the country’s standing in the international markets.
He said Iran will hence sell good bonds in markets, thus strengthening its financial might internationally and attract foreign capital.
