 Parliament finances talk about the deficit of the budget: we will adopt this mechanism to fill it

Economy News - Baghdad

Today, Thursday (May 30, 2024), the Parliamentary Finance Committee revealed the mechanism for bridging the financial deficit in the fiscal budget for the year 2024 sent by the government to the House of Representatives.

Committee member Moeen Al-Kazemi said that "the 2024 budget, according to the schedules sent by the government to the House of Representatives, amounts to (211) trillion dinars, and the government's oil and non-oil revenues amount to (147) trillion dinars, and this means that the deficit will be (64) trillion dinars, and we in the Finance Committee will follow up on this issue and give our perceptions regarding addressing the deficit in the upper limit."

Al-Kazemi indicated that "the government wants to address this deficit by borrowing from the Central Bank of Iraq in the amount of (20) trillion dinars and from other banks with a value of (5) trillion dinars and issuing new national bonds with (5) trillion dinars, and with a rise in oil prices, up to (16) trillion dinars, and for this we will have multiple meetings with the competent government agencies to find out the details of that process and how it is possible to fill the deficit away from borrowing and reduce it."

On Wednesday (May 22, 2024), the Parliamentary Finance Committee began holding its first meeting after receiving the 2024 budget tables, to review the budget tables and start studying them for the purpose of proceeding with their approval.

Later, the Finance Committee confirmed in a statement that it held its first meeting on the Federal Budget Law for the year 2024 with the aim of developing a comprehensive plan to review and analyze the budget tables and items related to them after their arrival from the Prime Minister's Office.

"RV UPDATE" BY MILITIAMAN, 31 MAY

 Militia Man 

 Article quote: "If we assume the Central Bank issues a new currency this will not affect the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar."  This guy is not wrong...It won't in my view.  The exchange rate will affect the new small denominations though...If they change the value of the exchange rate by dropping the three zeros, therefor the new denominations will be affected by it, which will be value.  It's pretty simple.

 If you raise the value of the currency it's going to have a ripple effect...Instead of being a pebble...or a brick in the pond this might be a boulder.  There's going to be some waves.  The World Bank, IMF, US Fed, US Treasury...Bank of International Settlements, everybody's going to need to know what you're going to do and when you're going to do it and pretty close. 

 They're not going to be broadcasting it like everybody thinks, 'What's the date and what's the rate?'  That's not how it works.  But we study it close enough to where...we can see it can't be far off...

If they're going to have liquidity and they don't have it now it's going to require new small category denominations to be in circulation.  Just as al-Alaq's project to delete the zeros would require new denominations.   Did they do that in 2018 and have them in storage?  I believe they did...

They increased that gold supply by about 40 tons...Their currency reserves are around $110 billion.  They have a massive amount of wealth.  They have the ability to support their imports for about 16 months they say, which is about 5x what they need.  That's important.  They don't want to reduce those.  They'd like to keep them on hand...Iraq has a good foundation for Alaq to do what he's supposed to do and it'll only get better if he does.

If they change the value of their currency they're going to have more surpluses...The oil price is about $70 in the 2023 budget.  That hasn't changed for '24 or '25 because that's a tripartite budget.  They got a surplus.  Oil is somewhere around $80.  It's been as high as $91ish.  The expectations of oil is to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $80/$90 and they even talk about $100/barrel...Iraq is going to be sitting pretty good...They have phosphates...sulfur...natural gas...Those non-oil revenue streams...taxes and tariffs are going to come online...Iraq has a good foundation for Alaq to do what he's supposed to do.

 Iraq is moving forward.  They've got huge reserves...increased their gold, they're going to have the private sector, their stock exchange is going to be one to reckon with.  It's an emerging market and a lot of money is going to be start flowing...

If they go on the Forex system it's going to be international.  It's going to be fast and furious. 

 Could they do something within the county prior to that 

Sure, why not, educate the citizens, do what they got to do...

 Question:  People want to know if they can drag this out until next year

 Militia Man: We don’t know the timing. But, I don’t think we are even close to go that long. There is way too much going on in the world and this is not only about Iraq. Remember all boats rise with the tide...I believe Iraq is ready to go with the rest of the world. Along with other countries like the Vietnamese dong. 

Are they going to change the value of their currency...
 I'm pretty sure they are going to need to to pay for all these [reconstruction] objects...rebar, the cement - all that stuff is expensive at 1310.  It's not so expensive if it's back at a 'previous era'....If they have the true value, their real effective exchange rate, it's going to be far cheaper...
