Iceland to Lift Capital Controls Imposed After Financial Crisis

``Iceland has planned for some time to remove the capital controls. But it is a tricky situation.

About 62 percent of the assets are foreign and 38 percent are domestic. If even a portion of that money leaves all at once, the currency would collapse and the country would be in crisis again. ''
