The real effective exchange rate (REER) is a measure of the relative strength of a country's currency in relation to an index or basket of other major currencies. The REER is used to judge whether the country's currency is undervalued or overvalued or, ideally, fairly valued...
Nominal Effective Exchange Rate (NEER)...
It is an index of the weighted average of bilateral exchange rates of home currency with respect to a basket of currencies of trading partners. An increase in NEER indicates an appreciation of the local currency against the weighted basket of currencies of its trading partners.
Iraq's top five export trading partners are India, with $38.8 billion, China with $34 billion, the United States with $10.3 billion, South Korea with 8.21 billion, and Greece with $6.27 billion. Based on Iraq's export partners the Iraqi dinar definitely could be worth more. However everything is speculative until the US and Iraq give the green light to float, revalue, reinstate or increase the value of the Iraqi dinar...This could happen overnight but it is unlikely.

He explained, "One of the important files that will be included in the discussions, with the participation of the Central Bank and the Iraqi Private Banks Association, is the issue of financial and banking reform and protecting the Iraqi banking sector from collapse after the issuance of sanctions and restrictions by depriving 50% of the total private banking sector from dealing in the US dollar, which is the main foreign currency for banking and commercial transactions." In Iraq and international banking relations a long time ago.”

He continued, "The importance of restoring activity and protecting the private banking system and ensuring the results of its work comes through the electronic platform for the year 2023, which has confirmed its safety and transparency."
Al-Nusairi concluded his speech by saying, “Failure to reach quick solutions to this issue will lead to confusion in the commercial and banking market and will affect ration card supplies, which are the primary food source for a large segment of the Iraqi people, and weaken the plans and procedures of the Central Bank and the government in financial and banking reform, and the lack of control over the stability of the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar.” And the national economy was damaged.”
