🇮🇶 IRAQ: 4 KEY DEVELOPMENTS THAT COULD SHAPE THE ROAD TO JANUARY 1, 2027 💥💵
📌 Frank26: Four key developments to watch
Frank26 is watching for four major developments that, in his opinion, could occur before January 1:
1️⃣ The removal of the three zeros from the Iraqi currency.
2️⃣ Redenomination and the introduction of lower-denomination banknotes.
3️⃣ Finalization and approval of the budget by Parliament.
4️⃣ Opening the budget and beginning implementation of the HCL (Hydrocarbon Law).
💡 According to his analysis, if all four developments happen at the same time, both sides could benefit. He believes October, November, and December could be crucial months to prepare for January 1.
🏦 Militia Man: Progress in Iraq’s Banking Sector
According to his October 18, 2026, commentary, the first group of 7 banks out of 32 sanctioned banks has reportedly met all required criteria and conditions, with no remaining legal or technical obstacles.
The process of returning these banks to financial activities is expected to proceed in three phases:
✅ Phase 1: Resumption of international transfers in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
✅ Phase 2: Resumption of financial transfers in U.S. dollars.
✅ Phase 3: Opening bank accounts with trusted international financial institutions, such as Citibank and JPMorgan.
📉 Thom: The Battle Against Iraq’s Parallel Market
Thom discusses the reduction of the official exchange rate to 1,500 dinars per dollar and believes it could be part of a strategy to weaken or eliminate the parallel market.
In his view, the gap between the official and parallel exchange rates, along with the resulting tensions and protests, could be part of a broader monetary restructuring process.
🎯 THE BIG PICTURE
The coming months could be important for monitoring Iraq’s monetary policy, banking sector developments, budget approval, and progress related to the HCL.
