KHARTOUM, May 23 (Reuters) - Sudan's central bank said on Sunday it would auction $40 million in foreign currency on May 26 in the first event of its kind following a sharp devaluation of its pound in February.
The central bank announced last week that it was launching a system of foreign currency auctions for importers as part of its managed floatation of the Sudanese pound.
