Bottom Line:

The Tehran Stock Exchange is losing its significance as it faces a decline due to political uncertainties and structural issues. At the same time, the exchange remains an indispensable capital market for Iranian enterprises, but its future will depend on political stability, structural reforms and a potential revival of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action  (JCPOA).
