New Somali Shillings To Be Printed....

The Puntland Ministry of Finance announced this week that the federal state will begin distributing the new Somali Shilling to local markets. This comes on the heel of state demands that accounting only be done using the Somali Shilling, amidst the popularity of the American dollar in local markets.

In the port city of Bosaso, the third-largest in Somalia and the commercial capital of Puntland, the Somali Shilling is at its greatest strength in a decade, exchanging now at 19,000 to the dollar. The aim of the Puntland administration is to foster the growing strength of the Somali Shilling by reintroducing it to local markets and keeping a steady supply of local currency for trade. At the moment, there is a near-absence of the Somali Shilling in Bosaso’s markets.

The state-run Bank of Puntland is not tasked with managing currencies, its only role will be to produce and distribute the currency to the public in order to keep its activity afloat. The new currency, to be introduced soon, will replace the weak former currency that was minted by the current Speaker of Parliament Sharif Sheikh Hassan in 2009 in Sudan. The old currency fell and created opposition across the region.

The new Somali Shilling is the product of the recently-reopened Central Bank of Somalia and was agreed upon by both Puntland and the Transitional Federal Government. It will be vastly different from the old currency and will come in bills of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, and 50,000, and is expected to bring about a historic change in local economies. Systems are being put in place to protect and develop this currency and avoid the mistakes of years previous.

Actually the Somali Central Bank is in Xamar, but we also have a central bank, and working hand in hand with the Federal Government to restore the Somali Shilling in it's rightful place. The Use of the Dollar in the Somali Market is at an unprecedented high and is almost replacing the use of Somali Shillings. :|

Somaliland to introduce new currency notes

Hargeisa, January 15, 2012 (Somalilandsun) - The imminent introduction of these notes into circulation is expected soon following the arrival at the central bank in Hargeisa of a large consignment of the notes from the contracted British printer.

Somalilanders who are used to the 100 & 500 notes are wondering what effect the new notes will have on their livelihoods as the mere mention of the new notes arrival has seen the dollar rise heavily against the local shilling.

Delivery of the bank new bank notes late last week has seen the rate of exchange of a dollar rise as high as to 6,500 as opposed to 5,700 early last week. This rise has continued to elicit a rate fluctuating between 6,300 and 5,800, almost on an hourly basis.

While Somalilanders are tired of carrying around large bank notes and thus welcome the introduction of the bigger value currency notes, worries bound as to what effect the new notes will have on the economy.
