http://www.jstor.org/stable/2231315?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents  This is a article on echange rate unification it may be old but gives us something to study ..Anyways it will not let me copy and paste!...Its from the economic journal ..http://www.jstor.org/stable/3867426?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents


Exchange rate unification vs. currency unification  The dual exchange rate system in Cuba overlaps with a dual currency system  Two official exchange rates for the Cuban peso, CUP • 1 CUP per 1 USD for the state enterprise sector and public institutions • 24 CUP per 1 USD for the rest  Two currencies: CUP and CUC, where 1 CUC = 1 USD  However, the two systems respond to different motives…  The dual exchange rate was introduced to protect basic imports and the BOP  The CUC currency was created to mitigate dollarization  …and their unification can be conceptually and practically de-linked  The two exchange rates could be unified while keeping the two currencies  A single currency could be mandated but two exchange rates could be kept  Three policy decisions: e-rate unification, monetary unification, postunification exchange rate regime; the focus here is mainly on the first...https://www.piie.com/publications/papers/delaTorre20150129ppt.pdfWhat is special about the unification challenge in Cuba?  The dual exchange rate originated in an exogenous shock (TOT deterioration and dry-up of foreign aid) rather than in endogenous capital flight  This mitigates concerns about speculative financial turbulence during unification  Pre-unification inflation is low but the e-rate spread is unusually large  This highlights the importance of tight monetary control during & after unification  The dual rate system is a fiscal scheme of large but implicit taxes & subsidies  Net sellers of dollars (or CUCs) at 1:1 (foreign hotel operators) are heavily taxed  Net buyers of dollars (or CUCs) at 1:1 (state enterprises) are heavily subsidized  Workers in the CUC circuit do not receive payments directly in CUCs, but in CUPs via a government employment agency => the system acts as a huge tax on labor  Unification requires decoupling e-rate from fiscal policy (major fiscal reform)  The responsiveness of economic actors to price signals is weaker  This can delay efficiency gains, which are the raison d’être of unification

When the price of oil was high, it is my thinking that the dinar could revalue at .10 because they had plenty in reserve with the high price of oil.  Now that oil is bottoming out, it seems to me they need to revalue higher to make up the difference in lost revenue

That does seem to be the plan.

Okay, I'll be the debbie downer here. What I see in this article is the CBI getting ready to move the 1166 official peg rate up to around 1240, which is more realistic to what the dollar and dinar exchange rate is in the marketplace. I do not see any good news in this article, people.

The price of 100 US dollars rose to 128 500 dinars in the middle of last week
