Economist: Soon Solutions Will Lead To A Decline In The Dollar And Turbulent Monetary Policy In Iraq
Time: 11/19/2023 Read: 3,289 times {Economic: Al-Furat News} The economic expert, Abdul Rahman Al-Mashhadani, revealed close solutions that would lead to a decline in the dollar, while describing monetary policy as “turbulent in Iraq.”
Al-Mashhadani said: For the {State Dialogue} program broadcast by Al-Furat satellite channel this evening, he said: “In the coming days, there are solutions that will lead to lowering the exchange rate, as we have 5 Iraqi banks that have partnerships with solid international banks and have a high reputation and capital.”
He added, "The partnership with Qatar National Bank gives strength to Iraqi banks, while Iraq and Iran deal with a third currency in commercial transactions, reducing the price of the dollar."
Al-Mashhadani described the current monetary policy in Iraq as “turbulent and is merely a buffer to absorb the mistakes of previous trade policies, and it is not compatible with the actual need.”
He added, "The platform detected 90 percent of the manipulations and problems in transfers. Some contracts were gateways to corruption and money laundering, and half of the invoices presented for imports were forged."
Al-Mashhadani pointed out that "the food sector accounts for approximately 41 percent of the inflation equation, and exchange rate fluctuations affect various sectors in addition to the psychological factor."
He concluded by saying, "80% of transfers were rejected by the US Federal Bank for no reason, and the delay in rejected transfers forces merchants to buy from the parallel market." Wafaa Al-Fatlawi LINK

After importing the dollar... an optimistic statement about the exchange rate in Iraq
Mozaine News - Baghdad
The economic expert, Abdul Rahman Al-Mashhadani, revealed the impact of the Central Bank’s steps on the dollar exchange rate in Iraq.
Al-Mashhadani said in an interview with Mawazine News,
“The recent measures will contribute to lowering the exchange rate by allowing banks to bring remittances from companies that have bank accounts in them or from their balances abroad, and this will achieve two things.
The first is that the central bank will be freed from the Fed’s oversight and penalties, given that any dollar Of these dollars, if they leak into the markets of the sanctioned countries, they are not from the Central Bank’s dollars.
The second is that these transfers mostly belong to foreign companies operating in Iraq that employ Iraqi employees and receive their salaries in dollars, or that have contracts with Iraqi companies that supply them with materials such as food, for example, or deliver them to them.
The contracts of these companies are denominated in dollars.
They will certainly be exchanged in the parallel market and will be an important resource for financing the market.” He added, "This is also the case with the banks being freed from transfer control through the platform and returning to its old method by enhancing the balances of banks that have foreign correspondent banks or that have partnerships with foreign banks.
This measure will lead to reducing the period for issuing the transfer from 15-30 days to two or three days." Days, at the same cost, and the auditing of these transfers is carried out by JP Morgan or the American Citibank, while previously the process of auditing and filtering was carried out by the Central Bank, then the Federal Reserve, and then Citibank or JP Morgan.” He added,
"The Central Bank's measures remain insufficient because they require the support of supporting government agencies such as customs, border crossings, the Ministry of Commerce, and the stability of the political and security situation."
