МОНРОВИЯ - 12 ноября 2021 г . Центральный банк Либерии (CBL) сообщает о введении в обращение новой банкноты 100 либерийских долларов с декабря 2021 г. на сумму четыре миллиарда либерийских долларов. Вторая партия банкнот нового серии номиналом 100 L $ в размере четырех миллиардов либерийских долларов будет доставлена в страну в течение 1 квартала 2022 года.
MONROVIA – November 12, 2021: The Central Bank of Liberia (CBL) will begin introducing the new Liberian dollar currency starting with the 100 Liberian dollar banknote in the tune of four billion Liberian dollars this December 2021. This amount is intended to increase Liberian dollar liquidity in the economy during the festive season. A second consignment of four billion Liberian dollars of the new family of L$100 banknote will be brought into the country during the 1st Quarter of 2022 to commence the gradual replacement of mutilated banknotes.
The new L$100 banknote is part of the L$48.734 billion of the new family of Liberian dollar currency authorized by the 54th National Legislature in May 2021 to be printed and minted in three years, specifically 2021, 2022 and 2024.
The introduction of the new currency will be done in line with the Implementation Plan of the Currency Changeover developed in consultation with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), to ensure a gradual, smooth, and transparent process.
The introduction of the remaining L$100 banknote and other denominations including the L$20, L$50, L$500 and L$1000 banknotes, and the L$5 and L$10 coins is due to take place in the latter half of 2022. The destruction of the old banknotes will be done through an enhanced internal control and transparent process to ensure full accountability to all stakeholders.
As the Bank rolls out the Implementation Plan, it recognizes the importance of all stakeholders in ensuring that the Currency Changeover process remains on course to support financial stability, and by extension, macroeconomic stability.
The Bank wants to reassure the public that it will continue to provide updates on the delivery and infusion of the new family of Liberian dollar banknotes and coins, as well as the withdrawal and destruction of the old banknotes. The Bank informs the public that there is no need for panic or rush as it rolls out the plan.
During the process, the Bank further informs the public that the existing and new banknotes will be allowed to co-circulate for a period of time and will ensure that every existing Liberian dollar in circulation is exchanged between 2022 and 2024. The exchange exercise will be done through the banking system in collaboration with other regulated financial service providers under stringent supervision and monitoring of the CBL in keeping with the Joint Resolution of the National Legislature.
Accordingly, the CBL profoundly appreciates the Executive, National Legislature, and the public for the support as well as the IMF and Kroll & Associates for their technical assistance and advisory roles, which have significantly contributed to the integrity of the process.
The CBL will continue its public education program on the introduction of the new L$100 banknote. More information on the specimen of the new L$100 banknote is available on the CBL website at www.cbl.org.lr. The other denominations be introduced later will be published on the CBL website.
