Part of Economic mismanagement and structural weaknesses are currently being observed within the economic system.

How could the public protests against economic mismanagement affect the Central Bank of Tunisia?

Likely What happens if… A possibility worth considering, not a forecast.

Economic crisis and unrest challenge Central Bank of Tunisia's stability efforts The ongoing economic crisis in Tunisia, characterized by worsening public services and shortages of essential goods, places significant pressure on the Central Bank of Tunisia. The protests, led by groups like the UGTT labour union, reflect a deep loss of public confidence in the country's economic management. While the Central Bank manages monetary policy, the severe economic instability reported makes maintaining financial stability and executing effective policy extremely difficult. This challenge is compounded by the political environment, where President Kais Saied's actions influence the Central Bank's operational and financial policies.

Tap any step to see the evidence behind it.

The facts so far

As reported. Each one links to where it comes from.

  • Thousands of Tunisians joined the largest protest against President Kais Saied in years on Saturday, accusing him of mishandling the economy.internazionale.it
  • Tunisia grapples with an economic crisis, worsening public services, recurring water and power cuts, and shortages of medicines and essential goods.internazionale.it

Why it matters

The Central Bank of Tunisia is responsible for managing monetary policy and domestic financing, functions that are critical for the national economy. If the economic crisis and political instability continue to erode public confidence and destabilize the financial system, the Central Bank's ability to implement effective policies to stabilize the currency and control inflation will be severely hampered.

Tunisia has faced significant political and economic turbulence, with President Saied seizing broad powers in 2021 and dissolving parliament. The current protests represent a major challenge to his rule, mirroring the deep structural weaknesses and economic difficulties that have plagued the country.

What we don't know yet

  • How will the Central Bank of Tunisia respond to the growing public distrust in economic management?
  • Will the political instability allow the Central Bank to operate independently of presidential mandates?

Is this still moving?
