The Euro and Pound Sterling saw slight depreciation against the SSP, which may benefit local importers sourcing goods from Europe. Meanwhile, East African regional currencies such as the Kenyan Shilling, Ugandan Shilling and Tanzanian Shilling registered almost no significant change.
South Sudanese businesses that rely on international trade are likely to welcome this consistency, particularly amid wider economic uncertainty in regional markets. For importers and travellers, the stable exchange rates offer predictability in planning expenses and foreign transactions.
