Fariba Akhavan, a senior official with the Central Securities Depository of Iran (CSDI), said that 14 new foreign investors were listed at the country’s capital market over the past month, IRNA news agency reported.
According to the report, foreign investors became interested in the country’s capital market after the implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) followed by the removal of nuclear related sanctions on the Islamic Republic.

The TSE, however, hiked by 28.3 percent over the last Iranian calendar year that ended on March 20, compared to the preceding year.
