Featured Snippet
Jeff confirms that Iraq’s current official exchange rate remains at 1310 IQD per USD on the Central Bank website, calling recent claims about a 1300-based 2026 budget misleading while emphasizing that Iraq’s own actions make a future rate change unavoidable.
Jeff’s Iraq Monetary Reality Check
In a space often filled with speculation and confusion, Jeff delivers a grounded and direct clarification regarding Iraq’s exchange rate, the 2026 budget, and recent commentary circulating within the dinar community.
His message is clear: not everything being said is accurate—and context matters.
The Truth About the 2026 Budget and the 1300 Rate
Jeff addressed claims suggesting Iraq’s 2026 budget would be calculated using a 1300 IQD per USD exchange rate, stating plainly:
“They said the 2026 budget would be calculated off of currency valued at 1310 per US dollar.”
He went on to dismiss recent chatter outright:
“Thursday’s comments are misleading garbage.”
According to Jeff, there is no official movement toward a 1300-based budget at this time.
What the CBI Website Actually Shows
Jeff emphasized an important and verifiable point:
“The rate right now on the central bank’s website live… is still at 1310.”
This matters because:
The CBI website reflects the official rate
No formal change has been implemented yet
Claims of an active 1300 rate are premature
“They are misleading you guys. There isn’t a ‘26 budget coming forward at 1300.”
However—Why the Rate Still Must Change
Despite correcting misinformation, Jeff made a crucial distinction:
“Based on Iraq’s actions they have to change the rate. They absolutely have to change the rate based on their actions alone.”
This highlights a key reality:
Iraq’s economic reforms
Infrastructure spending
International trade positioning
Budgetary mechanics
All require a future exchange rate adjustment to remain sustainable.
In other words, timing is the issue—not necessity.
A Warning to the Community: Dig Deeper
Jeff offered a sober reminder:
“You can’t trust everything out of Iraq. Sometimes you have to dive in deeper.”
This statement underscores:
The complexity of Iraqi politics
Conflicting narratives from officials
The importance of verifying sources and data
Surface-level headlines often fail to reflect real policy mechanics.
Why This Perspective Is Important
Jeff’s analysis serves as a balancing force by:
Correcting false expectations
Reinforcing factual data (1310 rate)
Acknowledging inevitable reform without hype
This type of clarity helps the community remain informed, patient, and realistic.
