An economist likely to ease the sanctions imposed on Iraqi banks, 3 AUGUST

  Today, Friday, economic affairs researcher Safwan Qusay suggested easing the sanctions imposed on Iraqi banks and making them financial only.

Qusay told Al Mada, “The Central Bank has contracted with an international company (K2) for the purpose of auditing banks that have restricted access to the dollar in previous periods, so that these banks can learn how to comply with international requirements.”

He added, "Everyone is keen on the process of stopping the use of Iraqi banks for the purpose of money laundering. The private Iraqi banks are not the owners of corrupt money, but rather there are those who acquire the Iraqi dinar illegally and are trying to use the banks for the purpose of money laundering and smuggling hard currency."

Qusay continued, “As for the restricted banks, they will be rehabilitated through merger, mitigation of these penalties, or making them financial penalties during the coming periods.”  link
