Description
This research article presents Albania's exchange rate regime from 1990 to 2024, with a particular emphasis on the evolution and modification of these regimes throughout time. It critically examines various exchange rate systems and evaluates their ramifications for the Albanian economy. The study looks at significant economic and political changes, particularly moments of crisis, and assesses their impact on exchange rate stability and the larger financial system. The relationship of exchange rate regimes and financial sector performance, notably stock exchange and monetary flows, receives special emphasis. This study also investigates country-specific risk, with a full analysis of Albania's political risk variables and their direct and indirect impact on the value and volatility of the national currency. The research process comprises the utilization of primary, secondary, and tertiary sources, providing a general view of the issue. This study intends to contribute to a better understanding of the role exchange rate regimes play in determining macroeconomic outcomes in small, transitional economies like Albania by combining historical trends, theoretical frameworks, and empirical data. Author (2025), states: ‘Every country varies from another country, even country varies for itself in different period/year, therefore the changes are evident, but flowing with the changes is when the country it can demolish crisis and establish a progress and a stability of its country economy and of-course its currency.’
