Putting these four factors together, it is reasonable to expect a significant increase in bank credit in the next two years. When rapid increases in bank credit happen at this stage in a banking system’s development they invariably lead to asset quality crises. The upgrading of underwriting ability (including the hiring and training of new credit analysts) always lags the growth of credit, and this problem is compounded by weak underwriting ability to begin with. THE LEVEL OF NON-PERFORMING LOANS IS HIGH, AND WILL BECOME HIGHER Non-performing loans (NPLs) account for about 12% of bank loans, according to government officials, speaking in The Tohid Tunnel in Tehran against the backdrop of the Alborz Mountains.

  • 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.
