  International Report: 2025 will be the largest year for projects inside Iraq

The International Data Bank, one of the international organizations concerned with monitoring the internal affairs of the countries of the world, issued its annual report for the year 2024, accompanied by estimates for the coming year 2025, confirming that the current year witnessed the issuance of the largest number of investment and service contracts inside Iraq.

The bank said, according to its report, which was translated by "Baghdad Today", that "Iraq spent $83 billion during the year 2024 on infrastructure and reconstruction projects, and awarded contracts to implement other projects during the year 2025 worth $126 billion," expecting that "this will lead to a doubling of the growth rate of the national GDP to about 4.1% during the next year."

The bank also explained that the largest projects were the share of the country's main roads for the Ministry of Transport, which are expected to be fully completed in 2029, noting also that oil investment projects and the construction of residential complexes in Baghdad, specifically (the integrated Nasiriyah oil project and the city of Al-Rufail in Baghdad) came in second and third place as the largest government projects for the year 2024. 

The information issued by the World Bank also confirmed that the contracts awarded for the coming year were distributed as follows (39.9% allocated to construction, 39.9% allocated to energy and industry, 24.3% allocated to electricity and water service projects, while 22.6% was allocated to road and transportation projects). link
