by Amir Abdallah Apr 13, 2013, 7:19 am

The Iraqi dinar will have 3 zeros canceled by the Central Bank of Iraq according to Finance Commissioner, MP Abdul Hussein al-Yassiri. MP al-Yassiri told Iraqi News that “it is supposed that this year will witness necessary preparations to cancel three zeros from the currency”.

He added that his commission supports such move for its importance to the Iraqi economy. The Central Bank of Iraq, earlier, announced that cancelling the zeros is within a plan to develop monetary policies in the country.

One of the difficulties facing is Iraq is withdrawing 30 trillion Iraqi dinars from Iraq’s market at the present time and to replacing it with new currency.

Earlier, the ministry of finance ruled out the idea of cancelling the zeros in 2013 because the federal budget was based on the current currency.

18/12/2014

BAGHDAD / JD / .. affected by the project to delete the three zeroes from the currency unchanged if the rest of the major strategic projects, the unstable security situation in the country, where he was supposed to be implemented early 2014 after the creation of the logistical and technical measures by the central bank, but the deterioration of the situation security in most parts of the country, which saw control of some terrorist groups.

(Mnt Goat – this is when ISIS overflowed from Syria into Iraq.)

 Sparked fears the government and parliament and the Central Bank of the implementation of this major project, which some have described as possibly exploited by outlaws in achieving their ends despicable, prompting the central bank and in agreement with the financial and economic committees Alniabaten to postpone the implementation of the project over four years to come, until the creation of the appropriate security conditions for its implementation.

(Mnt Goat – That brings us to 2018, right. Postpone for 4 years?)

Member of the Committee on Economy and Investment Attorney Nora Albjara, attributed the lack of implementation of the project to delete the zeros during 2014 to the unstable security situation in the country, as suggested implemented over the last four years of Maliki administration.

She Albjara Agency / BD /: “The Central Bank of Finance, Economy and Investment in the House of Representatives and the Committees agreed to postpone the implementation of the project to delete the three zeroes over the next four years, although the central bank completed all technical and logistical procedures relating to the implementation of the project.”

😊 (Mnt Goat – there they said it and I quote – “although the central bank completed all technical and logistical procedures relating to the implementation of the project” )

She added: “The reason for the postponement of the implementation of the project and not to be applied in 2014, due to the unstable security situation in most parts of the country, especially in the provinces experiencing control organization (Daash), because it may take advantage of the project by the terrorist groups to achieve their goals Katsyev currency or manipulation of the price of exchange which affects the economic situation in the country. “

The central bank had announced in 2012 that the application for the project to delete the zeros will be in early 2014, after being able to complete all procedures related to the stages of implementation of the project Ktba currencies and contracting with companies.

As a member of the Finance Committee MP Jamal Joker, stressed that the large project is not affected by the security situation, the fact that the central bank taking all things into consideration, noting that the process will be in the form of stages, so do not affect the market or citizen.

Some of the House of Representatives and economists Odhu jurisdiction rejecting the idea of ​​postponing the implementation of the project over four years to come, and called on the central bank to apply the project in early 2015, the fact that the project is of strategic projects that need to be implemented because it will overhaul the local currency strengthens.

Joker told / BD /: “The central bank completed all necessary and essential for the implementation of the reform project of the currency measures, which are now ready for implementation, but some parties called for a postponement of this project under the pretext of the security situation.”

The member of the Finance Committee, the central bank to implement the project in early 2015 to be implemented in the form of any phases are thrown coins ancient coins and withdraw gradually so do not affect the market and citizens.

(Mnt Goat – this was a suggestion by this member to do it anyway even though they didn’t have the security they wanted by rolling out in phases)

The parliamentary finance committee has announced (28 October 2013 ), that 2014 will see the implementation of the project to delete the three zeroes from the Iraqi currency.

(Mnt Goat -remember this was in the fall- October….)

2015

2015 DELETE THE ZEROS WILL BEGIN THIS YEAR

Tue Mar 03 2015 15:05 | (Voice of Iraq)

The project of deleting zeros came late after a long delay for this project which may bring back prestige to the Iraqi dinar which has suffered inflation for quite a long time. The Iraqi Central Bank (CBI) will begin this year with the procedures of deleting three zeros from the local currency according to the financial parliamentary committee in Iraq based on the official correspondences between the Central bank and the committee.

(Mnt Goat – So, from the advice of the finance committee in late 2015, see above article, they decided they would not wait 4 more years and do the Project in 2015 instead. They would slowly roll out the lower denominations.)

Abdul-Hussain al-Yasseri, a member of the financial committee, assured that the project is about to begin to delete three zeros from the local currency adding that the local currency will lower from 4 billion units to 1 billion units which will make currency transfers easier. Al-Yasseri, also, pointed out that the financial committee supports measures to enhance local currency considering the importance of Iraqi economy.

The central bank said that deleting zeros comes within a plan to improve its monetary policy and to enhance currency management.

The central bank pointed out in last August that it plans to delete zeros from the Iraqi dinar to facilitate transactions that are carried out mostly in cash among the challenges that Iraq will probably face when it will delete zeros from the dinar is to withdraw 30 trillion dinars currently used in the Iraqi market then getting rid of them and replace them with new currency.

(Mnt Goat – last August of 2015? Its now March in this article. So they hesitated until March to announce it and delayed it.)

Observers fear that this may open the door for currency counterfeiting on a large scale taking advantage of withdrawing old currency from the markets. The project of deleting zeros from the old Iraqi currency despite its strategic importance though its implementation should take into account the stability of security policy in the country to avoid any disastrous consequences.Top of Form

2016

INDEPENDENT IRAQI NEWS AGENCY OCTOBER 13, 2016

The governor of the Iraqi Central Bank, on Thursday, said the project to delete the zeros will be implemented in early 2017, indicating that the bank began to develop the first steps of the project. 

Keywords and said that ” the goal of deleting three zeros from the Iraqi currency is to support the Iraqi dinar and make it a competitor of foreign currency,” returned him as “that strategic project will serve the country ‘s economy.” 

He added that ” the Bank is working on the mechanisms in place towards the implementation of this project is expected to commence by the beginning of 2017, ” noting that ” the central bank began the first steps of the project through the selection of designs, companies and the country that will be done Print currencies. ” 

(Mnt Goat – again planning in the fall and doing it in early January of the next year.)

He noted that” the introduction of new currency does not mean the destruction of ancient coins , but it will continue to trade to about ten years , “pointing out that” this period will enable the central bank to withdraw the old currency in accordance with the mechanics will maintain market liquidity. ” 

😊 (Mnt Goat – did you read this last paragraph. It said and I quote – “introduction of new currency does not mean the destruction of ancient coins , but it will continue to trade to about ten years”. How can this possibly a “lop” when they will continue trade and use these larger three zero notes in the background for 10 more years after they complete the Project. Are you reading this? So no more negative stuff about a LOP…please! )

Finance Committee and was in former House revealed, (2013 August 15), the postponement of the process of removing zeros from the currency until after the next parliamentary elections, while confirming that the government is demanding guarantees for non – substituent currency back to the markets and forge. 

(Mnt Goat – Okay so here you read “that the government is demanding guarantees for non – substituent currency back to the markets”. This means the reinstatement back to the FOREX trading markets. The CBI wants guarantees that once they begin the process of the Project to Delete the Zeros, it will go all the way to the reinstatement. So is this not what my CBI contact also told us? Gee Whiz… this article goes all the way back to 2016. How does Mnt Goat know all this? She reads the news from the CBI and listens to her contact. Get it?)

The Central Bank of Iraq confirmed, in the (April 25, 2013 ), that there is no intention at the moment to restructure the currency and delete the three zeroes of them, denying the reports in this regard.   

Noteworthy that the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers announced (April 12, 2012), for the patient in the application process of deletion of zeros from the national currency, which had to be stop all procedures related to the transaction mentioned until further notice.

It is noteworthy that some economists believe that Iraq is not formatted for the time being to delete the zeros from the dinar, pointing out that the deletion needs to be a security and political stability as well as economic stability.
