RoydadNaft – <\/a><\/span>\u00a0Iran\u2019s Oil Industry Research and Technology Fund introduces the “Beta” financing package (Powered by Iran) at an event focused on investment and development in upstream oil and gas.<\/p>\n

One of the major challenges in Iran\u2019s financial system is managing liquidity growth while securing funding for developmental projects and increasing production. This issue, along with concerns over delayed financial injections to small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), has repeatedly been highlighted as a key concern by the Leader.<\/p>\n

The Leader previously emphasized that reducing and halting liquidity growth is the right policy, acknowledging that government efforts in this regard have been somewhat effective. However, he noted that restrictions on bank allocations should not negatively impact SMEs.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Mobilizing funds for productive projects<\/strong>\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

One solution to this challenge is financing through existing resources, pooling them to support productive projects. Real investment in production and development not only has long-term economic benefits but also increases the supply of goods and eases inflationary pressures.<\/p>\n

To this end, the Oil Industry Research and Technology Fund, as a specialized financial institution in the sector, will unveil the Beta financing package (Powered by Iran) at the Investment and Development in Iran\u2019s Upstream Oil and Gas event. The package aims to support investors in upstream oil and gas development.<\/p>\n
