2024 was a year of significant economic challenges for Bolivia. Net international reserves closed the year at USD1.974 billion, according to reports from the Central Bank of Bolivia, well below the USD15 billion recorded a decade ago. This decline was reflected in a severe shortage of foreign currency within the banking system, which limited the ability of importers of tobacco and e-vapour products to make payments, resulting in frequent supply disruptions and persistent stock shortages.
