DURING 2025.. CAUTIOUS ANTICIPATION OF THE ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL REALITY IN IRAQ
Economic expert Ahmed Al-Tamimi confirmed today, Sunday (December 22, 2024), that Iraq is heading towards a cautious situation regarding its economic and financial situation during the year 2025.
Al-Tamimi told Baghdad Today: “Expectations and data confirm that Iraq is facing hot events at the beginning of the new year, and these events will have repercussions and reflections on the country’s financial and economic reality, especially with the imminent assumption of the presidency of the White House by US President-elect Donald Trump, and the fear of imposing some sanctions and financial tightening on Iraq in order to limit the smuggling of the dollar as well as limiting the Iranian role through these economic pressures.”
He added, “There is extreme caution regarding the financial and economic reality of Iraq at the beginning of the new year, especially since the Iraqi economic situation is greatly affected by any security or political event, and for this reason everyone is anticipating the coming days, and this matter has led to a decline in the buying and selling of real estate and other valuable items, for fear of any expected economic and financial shock.”
The Parliamentary Finance Committee confirmed last Monday that the situation in Syria does not affect the Iraqi economy or the dollar exchange rate in the local market, noting that “the government and the Central Bank have taken several important measures to confront the security and economic challenges in the country, especially in light of the deteriorating situation in Syria.”
