IRAQ BANK FRIEND AKI UPDATE BY WALKINGSTICK, 7 NOV

  [Iraq bank friend Aki update]

Aki, where is he at? 

 Michigan. 

 What's he doing? 

Taking care of a bank...Also taking care of over 90 currency centers around Michigan.  

Why?  

Because of the Arab population in Michigan.  It's massive.  It's probably the largest of all the 50 states.  That's why Aki has his bank there.

 They used to have 130 trillion dinars in circulation.  They tell you now it's 100 trillion dinars...It will be trillions to billions.  

130...and now report at 100 trillion is a big clue of the direction of the exchange rate...The 100 trillion dinar they are talking about is the value of the IQD not the number of notes in circulation.  The difference is extremely important...The clue is it's going in the right direction of adding purchasing power to the country's currency.

   Makkia: Iraq is heading towards a major investment marathon

11/6/2024  Baghdad

The head of the National Investment Commission, Haider Makiya, confirmed on Wednesday that Iraq is heading towards a major investment marathon for many projects, while he indicated that funding from international institutions reduces the burden on the Ministry of Finance by granting loans for investment projects.

Makiya said in a statement reported by the official news agency, and seen by "Al-Eqtisad News", that "we found many economic visions in the first version of the Iraq Economic Forum", noting that "the issue of the possibility of benefiting from the financing of international institutions known to the Central Bank was raised in order to reduce the burden on the Ministry of Finance to grant loans and facilities to local investment projects or even foreign projects."

He added, "It is necessary to seek external funding to finance investment projects, especially since Iraq is about to embark on a major investment marathon for many investment projects inside Iraq." 

Makiya explained that "the understandings with the International Financing Program are still in effect, and we hope for all major investment projects in the field of renewable energy and waste treatment to generate electricity," noting that "we hope to search for solid institutions to develop the projects, especially since their amounts are very large."  LINK

[Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] 

  FIREFLY: Alaq back in TV talking about stability and security saying Iraq have very low external debt and that's good because high external debt causes low credit rating and it can hurt a country's exchange...

Alaq also said to us again the dinar would return to the 'glory days' of the past. 

 FRANK:  Doesn't get any better than that.  These are the people we want to hear from and these words coming out of their mouth?  This is exactly what we want our ears to hear form them.
