DESPITE THE DECLINE IN THE CENTRAL BANK’S RESERVES, AN ECONOMIST TOLD IRAQ OBSERVER: AL-ZAIDI IS LAUNCHING FINANCIAL REFORMS AND ATTRACTING INVESTMENTS TO BOOST THE IRAQI ECONOMY.

Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi’s recent actions have highlighted significant economic achievements. He announced a program and performance-based budget for the first time, linking government spending to results in a move aimed at improving the efficiency of public finances. He also launched a series of financial reforms, including austerity measures and salary restructuring, along with initiatives to encourage employees to take extended leave at half pay to ease pressure on the budget.


Economist Idris Ramadan emphasized that Prime Minister al-Zaidi’s initiatives to attract global investment and implement financial reforms came despite the decline in the Central Bank’s reserves to 102 trillion dinars.


Ramadan told Iraq Observer that “sovereign expenditures, including employee salaries, are increasing year after year, hindering the government’s efforts to achieve monetary stability.”
He added that “the government has initiated reform measures such as granting employees five-year leave at half pay, adopting austerity policies, and opening the door to foreign investment, including American investment, to alleviate pressure on foreign currency reserves.”


He continued, “These steps aim to protect the Central Bank from depletion and ensure the sustainability of reserves, at a time when the Iraqi economy remains hostage to fluctuating oil prices and high government spending.


Ramadan concluded by saying that “the Prime Minister has focused on attracting global investment, with major companies, including American and European ones, expressing interest in entering the Iraqi market, which enhances opportunities for economic diversification and reducing dependence on oil. He also emphasized combating corruption and creating a secure investment environment, as all these reforms aim to protect the Central Bank’s foreign currency reserves and ensure financial stability.”

 🚨💵 Jeff: "The Green Light Has Already Been Given" 🇮🇶

📢 Jeff addressed a common question:

❓ "Do you think Trump is the one who hasn't given the green light?"

💬 Jeff's response:
"No, no, no. Trump has already given the green light."

According to Jeff, the focus is not on waiting for political approval, but on a scheduled exchange rate change date.

🏦 He explains that:
✅ Bankers prepared the process.
✅ Bankers drafted the plan.
✅ Bankers are responsible for scheduling the implementation.
✅ What everyone is waiting for is the scheduled date for the rate change.

📌 Jeff also reiterates his view of the sequence:

➡️ Exchange rate changes first.
➡️ The removal of the zeros follows afterward.

📰 Jeff also pointed to what he considers another significant development:

📈 "In the past, we were lucky to see one or two articles a year talking about deleting the zeros. Last Sunday, there were 10 to 15 articles—a record number."

According to Jeff, this increase in public discussion reflects an effort to be transparent about the next phase of Iraq's banking reforms.

💬 He believes the surge in articles is intended to inform the public that the "Delete the Zeros" project is moving closer, stating that transparency is necessary because the deletion of the zeros is the next banking reform step.

⏳ As always, these comments reflect Jeff's personal analysis and interpretation. Investors continue to watch for official announcements from the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) regarding any confirmed monetary policy changes.

LATE-NIGHT MEETING OF THE FOUR PRESIDENCIES TO DISCUSS THREE “SERIOUS” ISSUES IRAQ

The four presidencies will hold an important meeting this evening, Monday, focusing on the issue of limiting weapons and options for confronting factions that refuse to disarm after the September 30 deadline.

According to an informed source who spoke to Shafaq News Agency, the meeting to be held between Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi, Speaker of Parliament Hebat al-Halbousi, President Nizar Amidi, and Head of the Supreme Judicial Council Faiq Zaidan will focus on two issues: first, restricting weapons, and second, continuing the fight against corruption and ensuring there are no red lines in pursuing any person accused of corruption, regardless of their governmental or political position.

The source explained that the meeting will also discuss the economic situation and the serious financial crisis that Iraq is going through due to the halt in its oil exports through the Strait of Hormuz, and possible solutions to confront the crisis in the coming period.

The issue of armed factions is one of the most sensitive issues facing the Iraqi government, with the approach of September 30, which the main political forces have set as the deadline for restricting weapons to official institutions.

In September 2024, Iraq and the United States agreed to end the military mission of the US-led international coalition against ISIS in Iraq, as part of a phased plan to move the security relationship between the two countries from the framework of the coalition to a bilateral partnership.

On Sunday, the State of Law coalition, led by Nouri al-Maliki, submitted a proposal to separate the date of the withdrawal of US forces from Iraq from the issue of disarming the factions, within the framework of a vision that is still “under study”.

Regarding the fight against corruption, a campaign of arrests was launched in Iraq in late June, targeting political officials, members of parliament, and businessmen, as part of a campaign called “Operation Dawn,” which Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi described as the “first phase” of broader measures to recover public funds, while tasking oversight bodies with receiving any indications related to cases of corruption or negligence in state institutions.

On the financial level, Iraq is experiencing a serious financial crisis, which has resulted in the delay in paying the salaries of a number of Iraqi state employees for the month of July, amidst accumulated living expenses and increasing economic pressures that have begun to be clearly reflected in the Iraqi markets.

 🏦🇮🇶 CBI Update: The Official Signals Are What Really Matter!

📢 Omar: The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) has not announced a new exchange rate or provided a timetable for issuing lower denomination banknotes.

🔍 While there is plenty of speculation in the media and political commentary, the most reliable information will come directly from the CBI.

✅ The key developments to watch are:
📌 An official statement from the Central Bank of Iraq.
📌 Decisions and actions taken by the CBI Board of Directors.
📌 Parliamentary actions that support the monetary reform process.

⏳ At this stage of Iraq's monetary reform, official CBI announcements—not rumors or media reports—will be the strongest indicators of what comes next.

Stay informed, stay patient, and always verify information through official sources.
