"RV UPDATE" BY MNT GOAT, 4 JAN

   Mnt Goat

   ...2023 was an outstanding year for progress in the currency monetary reforms in Iraq. I could hardly believe that so much was done in such a short period of time, if you compare the other 20 years since the 2003 invasion. In today’s news we read multiple articles talking about all this progress and how they have so far managed to get the parallel rate from 160,000 to 145,000. This is very close to the official CBI rate of 132,000, but not yet there as they expected.  My CBI contact is telling me they still want to bring it closer and more stable...It’s all very good signs but now there yet.

My CBI contact tells me they do need it closer and stable and when it does, they will trigger another CBI official rate revaluation. But this will still be the program rate not what we want. We need to keep our eyes on the CBI “official” rate. When this rate drops again, I was told they will move ahead on the project to delete the zeros. 

They want to accomplish this in the month of January and are optimistic they can. So, this is the very good news for today to kick off the new year.
