November of 2025 represented the peak of aspirations for economic reforms, before security and military developments escalated in areas under “the IRG of Yemen” sweeping away those hopes and measures and leaving uncertainty to dominate the current landscape. Aden witnessed notable political and diplomatic activity, as the Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council, Dr. Rashad Al-Alimi, the Prime Minister, and several members of the PLC returned to Aden. A series of meetings were held, creating the impression that the IRG authority was serious about overcoming the severe financial crisis resulting from the suspension of oil exports. This occurred despite continued divergence between the Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council and the Prime Minister regarding the implementation of what was termed the economic reform plan, particularly with respect to raising the customs dollar exchange rate. The IRG’s payment of delayed salaries to civilian and military employees constituted an important confidence-building step, helping to contain mounting tensions triggered by multiple directives aimed at tightening revenue collection, especially from governorates, closing some unofficial ports, and requiring all institutions to transfer revenues to the government’s account at the Aden-CBY. This monthly economic bulletin is issued by the Studies and Economic Media Center (SEMC) with the aim of highlighting the most important economic developments in Yemen, analyzing the political and administrative factors affecting the course of the national economy, and examining their impact on citizens’ lives.
