Economic Advisor: Our country is ranked ninth in the world in natural resources, 31 DEC

  Economic Advisor: Our country is ranked ninth in the world in natural resources

The economic advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, said, “What the economic policy in our country aspires to is thinking outside the box and providing sustainability in the current account surplus of the Iraqi balance of payments.”

He added, “This comes through investment expansion in natural resources, manufacturing them, and preparing them for export, which provides returns that help establish a sovereign wealth fund.

Saleh pointed out in a press statement followed by (Al-Masry - Today, Sunday), that "the most appropriate model is to generate a sovereign wealth fund {directing its investments towards internal opportunities} and according to a different vision; because our country is ninth in the world in terms of the diversity of its natural resources in the earth's interior and first in the world in terms of the concentration of wealth in one square kilometer."  link
