 They are doing what the monetary reform requires right now.  That is for the Iraqi citizens to now be in position to receive the lower denoms, the fils and a new exchange rate.  It's all being done by the process of removing the American dollar and increasing the confidence, the value, the usage of the Iraqi dinar...

These institutions [WTO etc] want Iraq to join them because they know Iraq is about to go into a float state.  Let's look for 1 to 1200, 1 to 1,000, 1 to 1.  Let's look for a change that is dramatic enough for it to be allowed to be released into the international theater.  Within the next 5 days I'm very curious to see what the exchange rate will be after the 15th .  Very curious to see if they're going to leave it at at penny stocks or are we improving?

Question "Are redemption centers at a bank or elsewhere?"  I'm going to a bank.  You can find  redemption centers in a lot of places.  Some large credit unions might do it.  Go to an airport, they have those kiosks and try there if you want.  You're not going to get a good exchange rate IMO if you go to those places.  Go to a large bank.  Don't go to  the mom and pop bank either...

 [I never said they will, I said they said they may revisit/consider 12 to 1.  But...]    Just because they switch it to 12 to 1 doesn't mean you have to cash in all your dinars.  If you believe it's going to go up more in value then hold on to them.  Cash some in at least, get some of your money back or cash in enough...to pay off your bills, pay off your house... cars... medical bills...make yourself debt free and then hold on to the rest of the dinars and see what happens. 

I never said there was an official 12 to 1 exchange rate.  What I said was I thought it was interesting that in that article they even considered revisiting the 12 to 1 exchange rate policy in the year 2026...It says  they're revisiting the 12 to 1 exchange rate policy and they're going to do it the beginning of 2026.   I didn't make that up, nor  did I say they were going to go to 12 to 1.  I was explaining to you what the 12 to 1 exchange rate policy is.      

I've heard so many [gurus] talk about - according to the IMF Iraq needs to be within 2% between the parallel rate and their official exchange rate.  No that's not right...To maintain stability Iraq needs to maintain a narrow spread, that's the gap between the official exchange rate and the black market.   Generally a spread of less than 5% is considered acceptable.   Not 2%, 5%.  A spread more than 10% is considered a significant risk to the economy.  Iraq is going to have to shoot for between 5 and 10%.  They want to be less than 10.  It'd be idealistic if they can get around 5...
