"RV UPDATE" BY MNT GOAT, 20 JAN

 Mnt Goat  

 So, how long will us investors in the IQD have to wait before Iraq is allowed to liberate its own currency? 

Why do I say “now is the time”?  We know they are completely out of Chapter VII sanctions since December 2022...We know they want the Iraq funds (nearly USD 115+ billion) released from the NY banks and put in their custody...We know they have plans for yet more Sovereign Funds to invest their reserves. 

 We know they are making agreements now for “currency swaps” for trade...as Iraq will no longer be using any US dollars in Iraq as of January 1st 2024. We know that the IMF is now working on the final stages of pulling together agreements to build a new basket of six (6) currencies to re-peg the IQD.  More pressure from Iraqi economics advisors to the government to use a “basket” of currencies for the new dinar peg. This is the IMF plan of 2011 all along. 

 We know since January they have undertaken a massive “de-dollarization” program and told it should have taken 6 years but they decided to do it in 1 year (2023). 

 Why such a hurry? 

We know the value of the IQD right now does exceed even pre-1991 era but still at 1/6 of a penny for a rate? 

The value won’t go up, its already there ... 

Why is it being suppressed?

 Iraq needs to see a rate reflecting the TRUE VALUE. 

What is holding it back? 

We know Iraq now pumps 2/3 more oil than in pre-1991 era. Iraq also has announced 132+ tons of GOLD reserves. We know they are pushing this year alone, more than any other year since 2005, for the passing of Oil and Gas law. 

 Why? 

We know for a FACT that it is the U.S. through the Treasury Dept. direction that will NOT give sign-off to allow the reinstatement. 

Why?

Finally, the CBI has told us many times already that January is the most opportune time to reinstate for accounting purposes, since it begins their new FISCAL year (for accounting purposes).  Imminent World Trade Organization full accession.  

Just be patient, the reinstatement is coming and I firmly believe from what we now know there is a very strong likelihood we NOT are going to be at the banks in early 2024 but there is still strong hope for early part of the new year.

 There is no guarantees and so no one really knows a date when the event will occur. Let’s just follow the FACTS and see where they lead us…okay? Iraq is full of surprises and so anything is possible.

The role and challenges of Iraqi banks in economic development, 20 JAN

 The role and challenges of Iraqi banks in economic development, 20 JAN

The Iraqi banking sector plays a crucial role in shaping the country’s economic landscape. Institutions such as the International Development Bank, the National Bank of Iraq, the Bank of Baghdad, the Rafidain Bank, Al-Rasheed Bank, and the Commercial Bank of Iraq constitute essential components of the financial infrastructure in Iraq. Although they contribute significantly to financialintermediation, investment and development financing, challenges remain, hindering their full potential.

The banking sector in Iraq is diverse, and includes private entities such as the International Development Bank and the Bank of Baghdad, along with state-owned giants such as the National Bank of Iraq, Al-Rafidain, Al-Rasheed, and the Commercial Bank of Iraq. Each institution plays a unique role in the economic ecosystem, contributing to financial stability, growth and development, and despite their critical role, Iraqi banks face enormous challenges that limit their effectiveness. Sectarian and partisan quotas within the banking system, in addition to administrative and financial corruption, have restricted these institutions. The Commercial Bank of Iraq, which was established in 2003 under coalition authority, faces restrictions primarily related to lending to the government.

In addition to the obstacles to financial facilitation, although the Trade Bank of Iraq is able to open credits, it imposes strict requirements on commercial banks, which hinders their ability to facilitate trade. High guarantees of up to 110% create obstacles for local companies and limit their participation in international transactions. Transparency issues and the demand for specialized staff increase the complexity of the process, creating disparities in the treatment of local and international clients.

As for the World Bank and local loans, despite the efforts made to strengthen local financing, the World Bank’s success in obtaining less than 5% of small projects through Iraqi local loans raises questions. The high efficiency required by Iraqi banks, especially in investment projects, conflicts with international standards, which may hinder economic development in the country.

The challenges faced by Iraqi banks extend to the public, affecting citizens’ confidence in the banking system. Memories of looting and theft during the 2003 invasion still linger, causing reluctance to deposit money in banks. World Bank figures reveal that only 23% of Iraqi families have accounts in financial institutions, reflecting a broader lack of confidence in the banking sector.

This sector suffers from the dilemma of dollarization, and according to economists, the contradiction between official rhetoric and reality is very clear, and while the state encourages depositing savings in banks, legal reforms and basic services are still absent. Ghanem points out that Iraqi banks do not allow deposits in dollars for savings, which leads to large losses in hard currency. Many Iraqis prefer to store their savings in dollars at home, which erodes confidence in local currencies.

To address these challenges, a comprehensive approach is necessary. Reforms aimed at reducing corruption, improving transparency, and simplifying banking operations could enhance the efficiency of Iraqi banks. Encouraging financial education and digital payment methods can also contribute to rebuilding public confidence. Striking a balance between regulatory measures and facilitating economic growth will be necessary for the Iraqi banking sector to play a stronger role in the country’s economic development.

"RV UPDATE" BY MILITIAMAN, 20 JAN

  Militia Man 

 They're taking the public and the private sector and they're merging them together so they can move this into a full-blown market economy...

rticle:  "The International Monetary Fund welcomes Iraq's accession to a program that supports economic reforms" 

 Quote:  "Thursday...the International Monetary Fund welcomed Iraq’s accession to a non-financing program to support economic reforms"  After decades of involvement...the specificity of many things are likely to be known by the IMF,
exchange rate regimes be sure.

  For Iraq to be moving forward with all reforms ...in that there is no financing needed should  be eye opening for everyone. How does non-financing work with the IQD at 1,310 IQD to 1 USD for to pay for projects and commodities? It has not ever while with an IQD exchange rate of $.0006 or even $.0007 to the dollar. So why would it be any different now? It clearly wouldn't.

 The fun part is we are watching history in the making...Saudi Arabia strongly supports  Iraq's ascension to the World Trade Organization...They've basically said Iraq has completed everything needed to be done.   Everything is just shy of announcing they have WTO ascension.
