 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report]   

FIREFLY:  We have big new report on television saying the Iraqi parliament is in full support of the CBI and its actions to control the exchange rate for the monetary reform. 

 FRANK:  The only reason parliament is saying you're now going to have your new exchange...your HCL...your budget...you're now going to have everything that was promised to you by Sudani and Alaq is because they lost full control of the corruption...

  FIREFLY:  The CBI is on the news today warning people not to deal with unlicensed companies.

  FRANK:  If you're not dealing with unlicensed businesses then those companies are going to go out of business...And fines are going to drive them out of business.  There's no more problems with banks that are using the American dollars in Iraq.  They are being eradicated.

Currency Auctions in Iraq and Azerbaijan: A Dance with Economics Amidst Diplomacy and Security, 2 NOV

Currency Auctions in Iraq and Azerbaijan: A Dance with Economics Amidst Diplomacy and Security

In the tremors of the global economic landscape, two nations – Iraq and Azerbaijan – are striving to stabilize and bolster their currency markets, with auctions that have rippled across the financial world. On Thursday, the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) auctioned over $200 million in foreign exchange, a move that echoed Iraq’s persistent endeavor to stabilize its currency and stimulate economic growth.

The Currency Auction: A Telling Tale

Of the total $200 million, a staggering $176,406,543 was funneled to bolster foreign balances in the form of transfers and credits, while a humble $24,071,600 was allocated for cash deals. Seven banks facilitated these cash deals, with 19 other banks meeting requests pertaining to foreign balance. They were not alone. A total of 61 exchange and brokerage companies also partook in the auction, amplifying the depth and liquidity of Iraq’s foreign exchange market.

But this auction was not just about numbers. It was an emblem of Iraq’s commitment to maintaining a favorable foreign exchange reserve and strengthening its external financial position. This would in turn augment Iraq’s capability to meet its international obligations and manage its foreign exchange risk.

The Shadow of the Baku Auction

Meanwhile, a similar narrative unfolded in Azerbaijan. The Central Bank of Azerbaijan (CBA), with the State Oil Fund of Azerbaijan (SOFAZ), also held a currency auction. Demand at this auction spiked to $57.4 million, a 40 percent increase from the previous auction. This surge in demand underscores the positive economic conditions and growing confidence in the Azerbaijani currency, mirroring the strengthening of the country’s financial system.

Diplomacy and Security: The Other Side of the Coin

While these auctions painted a positive financial picture, diplomatic and security concerns were not far behind. The president of Kurdistan is set to visit Paris, a move that could fortify diplomatic ties between the Kurdistan Region and France, and promote economic development and stability in the region.

However, the postponement of the significant ‘Baghdad Conference III’ due to security concerns casts a long shadow over Iraq’s socio-political landscape. This highlights the challenges and uncertainties the country grapples with, even as it strives towards economic growth and foreign investment.

The Currency Dance: A Tale of Two Cities

A curious dance unfolded in the Iraqi market. The US dollar, while strengthening against the Iraqi dinar in Baghdad, slightly declined in Erbil. The fluctuation in the exchange rate reveals the volatility and sensitivity of the currency market, a marionette in the hands of economic conditions, political stability, and global market trends.

These developments in Iraq and Azerbaijan, coupled with the diplomatic visit and security concerns, bring to light the complexities and challenges these nations face. Yet, they also illuminate their resilience and determination to forge ahead towards economic growth, stability, and international cooperation.

The Dance of Dollars and Dinars: Understanding Iraq’s Economic Pulse, 2 NOV

The Dance of Dollars and Dinars: Understanding Iraq’s Economic Pulse

The soft hum of currency exchange counters in the bustling markets of Baghdad bore witness to a significant event. The U.S. dollar (USD) exchange rate against the Iraqi dinar (IQD) closed higher, reaching 162,600 IQD for 100 USD at both the al-Kifah and al-Harithiya Central Exchanges. This was a surge of 350 IQD from the opening rate, a dance of numbers that tells a tale of economic currents.

The Currency’s Pulse

The exchange rate between the Iraqi dinar and the U.S. dollar is a vital socioeconomic heartbeat, reflecting the stability and confidence in the Iraqi currency. An increased rate implies a growing appetite for the USD, possibly due to inflation, political tremors, or economic uncertainty. Conversely, a diminished exchange rate signifies a robust Iraqi dinar and heightened faith in the local currency.

A Turbulent Journey

The journey of the Iraqi dinar against the U.S. dollar has been a tumultuous one in recent years. It has been buffeted by a storm of political and security situations in Iraq, economic factors such as inflation, and the oscillating price of oil, Iraq’s main revenue source. The USD, often viewed as a safe haven currency, becomes the asset of choice for investors during uncertain times, leaving the local currency in the shadows.

Government Measures and Economic Implications

The Iraqi government, aware of the fluctuations, has taken measures to stabilize the exchange rate, from implementing monetary policies to maintaining a flexible exchange regime. However, the rate remains vulnerable to external factors, such as shifts in global oil prices or geopolitical squabbles in the region.

The exchange rate’s ripple effects touch every corner of the Iraqi economy. A weak dinar inflates the cost of imports, leading to an upsurge in prices for goods and services, burdening consumers, and fueling inflation. Conversely, a robust dinar renders exports pricier, hampering the international competitiveness of Iraqi goods.

Beyond the exchange rate, other economic elements, such as interest rates, government policies, and economic indicators, also influence the overall health of the Iraqi economy. It is crucial for the Iraqi government to continue implementing reforms and policies that foster economic stability and lure foreign investment.

The exchange rate between the Iraqi dinar and the U.S. dollar operates as a barometer of Iraq’s economic climate. It mirrors investor confidence and the stability of the local currency. Despite the volatility, the Iraqi government has taken strides to stabilize the currency and propel economic growth. Still, the exchange rate remains susceptible to external influences, underscoring the government’s challenge to sustain economic stability and attract foreign investment.

 Article quote:   "There are negotiations with the Iranian side to create a platform for new currencies other than the dollar to secure Inter-trade between the two countries.  It's called Visa Direct.  It's a new banking service launched by one of the most important digital banks in the country under the supervision of the Central Bank and in cooperation with Visa International...this will help in the collapse of the black market prices..."  Kinda big right?  International...That's their goal, get rid of the black market and I think the corrupt see their cash cow is about ready to go bye-bye.

  If they do in fact get the oil and gas law done they're going to need an evaluation for that . They're going to need to know what to pay the wealth of the citizens a fair distribution.

 Article quote:  "There are no sanctions imposed on Iraq by the US Treasury but sometimes there is a tightening of standards..."  They say it twice today in different articles that there are no sanctions imposed on Iraq.  If that's the case and the US Treasury gives the green light then, wow, we really have nothing holding us back...

Iraq Stock Exchange: A Beacon of Economic Resilience and Growth, 2 NOV

Iraq Stock Exchange: A Beacon of Economic Resilience and Growth

In the last week of October, the Iraq Stock Exchange (ISX) was a whirlwind of activity. The exchange, which is home to 103 public companies bearing the economic hopes of Iraq, saw equities valued at over six billion dinars changing hands. Investors engaged in 3,297 transactions, trading more than five billion equities, and the ISX60 index closed at a promising 820.06.

The Pulse of Iraq’s Economy

The activity in the ISX serves as a barometer of Iraq’s economic health. The robust trading and the upward trend of the ISX60 index are harbingers of stability and growth in Iraq’s economy and a beacon for both local and global investors. The stock market’s pulse is beating steadily, suggesting a level of investor confidence that could stimulate further economic growth.

The Role of Central Depository and Electronic Trading Systems

In 2009, the ISX underwent a significant transformation with the installation of Central Depository and Electronic Trading Systems. These technological advancements have streamlined the process of buying and selling stocks, enhancing market liquidity and efficiency. Beyond easing transactional friction, these systems have bolstered market transparency and curtailed the risk of fraudulent practices, making the ISX an even more enticing prospect for investors.

Diversification: The Key to Investor Attraction

The ISX’s portfolio of 103 public companies mirrors the diverse economic fabric of Iraq. Ranging from banking and telecommunications to industry and services, these companies provide a plethora of investment opportunities. This diversity mitigates investment risks, allowing investors to build a balanced portfolio and offering a safeguard against sector-specific downturns.

Currency Stability: A Balancing Act

The recent strengthening of the US Dollar against the Iraqi dinar in Baghdad markets testifies to the overall stability of the currency – a positive sign for the Iraqi economy. It signals confidence in the country’s financial system and a perceived stability that may attract more foreign investment. However, the slight depreciation of the US Dollar in Erbil hints at the existence of regional variations in Iraq’s currency market, potentially influenced by different economic factors and market dynamics in the two cities.

For both domestic and international investors, currency stability is paramount. It mitigates the risks of inflation and currency depreciation, rendering Iraqi dinars a more attractive asset. Moreover, it offers businesses a stable economic environment and reassures foreign investors about the value of their investments.

Overall, the recent flurry of activity in the ISX, coupled with the stability of the US Dollar against the Iraqi dinar, paints a picture of a resilient Iraqi economy finding its footing. The role of Central Depository and Electronic Trading Systems in enhancing the efficiency and transparency of the ISX, the diverse range of listed public companies, and the stability of the currency are collective indicators of a robust financial system. These factors make Iraq an intriguing and potentially rewarding terrain for investors, both home and abroad.
