Trade and Commerce.
Bandar Ahhas—There was a slight improvement m trade during the past
year, both imports and exports showing a small increase over the two preceding
years.
Foreion exchange has been steadier thus enabling merchants to transact
their business with more confidence- The latter cleared their expenses in
1922 but their returns for the past year should show some profit.
No failures have been recorded during 1923.
The local branch of the Imperial Bank of Persia has-been able tobuy a
sufficient amount of Foreign exchange to allow of it selling to importers ot foreign
goods at a fairly low average rate for the year.
It was thought that the opening of the Duzdap rouet would divert from
Bandar Abbas the bulk of imports destined for the interior that ^sed hitherto
to be introduced through the latter. It is not found that the trade of Bandar
Abbas has so far been affected to any appreciable extent.
Goods despatched via the Duzdap route take as long to reach their destination
as through Bandar Abbas, but the former is the more expensive route ^Dur g
