CBI Banker in Iraq Contact:
Dee and I just finished a conversation with our CBI Banker in Iraq with ties to the Foreign Remittance Department.
Iraq is currently increasing the amount of Gold they hold that will support their currency.
Iraq is encouraging people to use a debit (Visa & Master) Card as much as possible, so they can get used to becoming a cashless society.
As far as a rate is concerned, they are looking to move from 1,310 to 1,000 soon.
Many new agreements have been signed with other countries to increase the demand for their currency as of late.
He expressed that they still need more goods to sell to increase their money velocity.
Iraq has not moved to a position of removing the three zeros on their currency just yet.
It was mentioned that they are still working with their Foreign Corresponding Bank to complete their banking reforms this year.
