I am pleased to share the 2019-20 Bank Eghtesad Novin's Annual Report with you. In this report, my teammates and I share highlights of the progress our bank made during the year, which capped off a decade of growth for our bank and for Iran's banking industry. Bank Eghtesad Novin pursues a new guideline for its operation and accomplishing its goals through defining new business strategies. In this regard choosing proper goals, which require an improvement of business infrastructures, including financial structures is our bank's priority. The board of directors' briefing report for capital increase through reevaluation of assets and shareholders' cash deposits was provided. To improve the existing internal and external control systems and rules recommended by the Central Bank of Islamic Republic of Iran, Securities and Stock Exchange Organization, our internal auditing committee restructured itself with the mission of acting as service provider not only to the management but also to the organization as a whole. Due to the 132% increase in capital, we hope that this growth continues in order to strengthen bank's financial stability and future growth and development. We are extremely proud that the bank's proper performance and financial clarity in issued reports for the stock market lead to a welcoming and impressive reaction from the market which resulted in a 567% growth of stock value since March 20, 2019 to the date. Another underscored approach of the board of directors through the year ending March 19, 2020, was emphasis on professional banking standards, aiming to focus on banking operations and financial intermediation via selling of about IRR 10'000 billion non-banking investments and estate properties. In addition, Necessary measures have been taken to accept and offer a portion of the shares of the subsidiary companies, including Eghtesad Novin leasing companies and Pardakht Novin Aryan in the capital market. As in the past, the bank remained committed to its social responsibilities. In response to the trust of the respected shareholders and fulfilling our mission to maximize profitability for them, business enterprises and large corporations also have a moral obligation to serve society at large and local communities, from which we emerge and thrive. We allocate a considerable portion of our resources towards fulfilling our role as a socially responsible bank. In support of educational purposes, six schools have been constructed in underprivileged regions of the country and in support of Covid-19 patients; a portion of the needed medical equipment for Imam Khomeini Hospital has been purchased and dedicated to the said hospitals. I hope you will enjoy reading about your bank in the following pages, where you can look at how we are helping make financial lives better through every connection. There are factors beyond our control that affect the markets and economies in which we operate but we continue to use our operational excellence work to drive operational risk out of the bank. Despite headwinds that may arise from time to time, over the last decade we have built a strong, stable platform, with significant liquidity and capital, and we will remain resilient as we maintain disciplined focus on what we can control, which is embedded in delivering Responsible Growth. As we look ahead to 2020 and beyond, we will maintain our focus on delivering Responsible Growth through disciplined adherence to the tenets I have discussed: by serving our clients, managing risk well and ensuring those results are sustainable through operational excellence, being a great place to work for our teammates, and sharing our success. The strategy that our board of directors reviewed in 2019 is based on continued adherence to this approach. Sincerely Yours, Kind regards, Alireza Bolgouri CEO.

  • Secondary Sanctions on the Iranian Financial Sector Create De Facto Embargo with Lasting Implications for the Biden Administration
    Secondary Sanctions on the Iranian Financial Sector Create De Facto Embargo with Lasting Implications for the Biden Administration Abigail Eineman IRAN WATCH REPORT John P. Caves III January 2021 1 Introduction During their confirmation hearings last week in the U.S. Senate, President Joe Biden's key national security nominees noted that the new administration was prepared to return to the nuclear accord with Iran, but warned that such a return would not be swift. First, Iran would have to resume compliance with the accord's nuclear restrictions in a verifiable manner, according to Secretary of State designate Antony Blinken, at which point the United States would resume compliance as well. President Biden’s choice for director of national intelligence, Avril Haines, estimated during her confirmation hearing that “we are a long ways from that.”1 Compliance for the United States would mean reversing at least part of the Trump administration's “maximum pressure” campaign—a set of overlapping trade and financial restrictions on almost every part of Iran's economy. The outgoing administration made such a reversal more challenging, particularly as a result of the sanctions imposed on Iran's financial sector in the administration's final months. On October 8, 2020, the United States designated Iran’s financial sector pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13902 and sanctioned eighteen Iranian banks.2 In doing so, the U.S. Treasury Department applied secondary sanctions to Iran's entire financial sector for the first time, potentially barring foreign entities from the U.S. financial system should they do business with Iranian banks.
