Confirming the views of the government advisor, the economic expert, Manaf Al-Sayegh, pointed out that “the existence of coordination measures between the financial and monetary policies indicates the presence of a sound reading among the pillars of the Iraqi economy, and that the strategy that was developed to enhance the value of the dinar has begun to bear fruit.”
However, Al-Sayegh, during his talk to “Al-Sabah,” urged the necessity of knowing the real measures that led to the decline in the parallel exchange rate to ensure its sustainability during the coming periods, with the aim of absolutely controlling the green currency and preventing its rise again, stressing that this decline in the exchange rate could achieve a number of economic gains, The most prominent of which is controlling the prices of goods and materials in local markets, and reducing the rise in inflation rates during the coming periods, and therefore this is in the interest of Supporting individual economics.

All the contracts that Al-Sudani signed around the world are now being recalculated and being converted into dinars...That takes guts to do that. Normally a country would simply walk away and say forget you, up yours. But right now Sudani has so much power, he is in so much control that the world will bow to any of his demands concerning the economic reform of Iraq all because the monetary reform was successful and proven to them. They all want a piece of Iraq, at whatever cost.
No bank is going to exchange your Iraqi dinars. It is the wealth management departments. For example the one that we're using Chase is using JP Morgan. Chase is not going to exchange your dinar. JP Morgan is...Welcoming Iraq's accession to membership in the European Bank, 28 MARCH

A pivotal moment looms on the horizon with Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani slated to visit Washington DC on April 15, 2024. President Biden is set to host this crucial meeting...It's not all about military...the meeting is also expected to tour upon Iraqi financial reforms...This is the reason this meeting is important for Iraqi dinar investors. The US...undoubtedly has a vested interest in the successful implementation of these reforms.
Article quote: "Salih summarized on Friday the benefits of Iraq's accession to the membership of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development." It looks like Iraq is doing everything possible to join the international financial platforms. We need to wait and see how this will affect our ability to exchange our Iraqi dinar bank notes for US dollars.
There is absolutely no law against carrying large sums of cash...You can travel with as much money as you want.
However, there is a catch. If you are entering or leaving the Untied States with more than ten thousand dollars in cash or equivalent, you are required to report it to customs and border protection.
This rule applies whether the cash is in U.S. dollars or in a foreign currency...You need to complete a "FinCen 105 form"... What happens if you don't report more than 10 thousand dollars in cash? Failure to report can lead to seizure of the money...You may also face criminal charges...Remember these rules...it's always better to be safe than sorry.]
