The Central Bank of Tunisia (BCT) has published its financial statements for the year 2024, revealing a net profit of 1.36 billion dinars.
This result made it possible to bring equity equity to 2.93 billion dinars, up 11.7% compared to 2023. The board of directors decided to allocate 80.8% of this profit, or 1.1 billion dinars, to the State, and 196 million dinars to a special reserve to strengthen equity.
BCT interventions on the money market increased by 12.3%, reaching 8.15 billion dinars at the end of 2024. This increase is mainly due to the increase in marginal loan facilities at 24 hours and the introduction of a new refinancing instrument at six months.
Fiduciary traffic continued its upward trend, with an increase of 8.4% in 2024, reaching 22.6 billion dinars. Tickets represent 97.8% of this money supply.
The BCT gold assets remained stable to 6.8 tonnes, but their value increased by 267.2 million dinars, reaching 1.1 billion dinars at the end of 2024. This increase is attributed to the increase in the course of the golden ounce and to the evolution of the exchange rate of the US dollar compared to the Dinar.
These results reflect prudent management of the BCT monetary policy, aimed at supporting financial stability and strengthening the country’s strategic reserves.
