Economist: Direct banking investment is prohibited by order of the Central Bank

6/30/2024

 

Economic expert Mustafa Akram Hantoush explained on Sunday that the Central Bank of Iraq is adopting a “strict” central policy in its dealings with the banking sector, which limits the ability of banks to engage in direct investment and financing economic projects .

Hantoush told Shafaq News Agency that this policy makes it difficult for the banking system and investors to invest their capital in new projects without obtaining special approvals from the Central Bank.

Hantoush added that the current procedures followed by the Central Bank prevent banks from entering the areas of direct investment, which hinders the banking sector from achieving a vital role in moving the national economy.

He explained that the banking system, in light of these procedures, does not have sufficient capacity to play an effective investment role in line with normal banking rules, but rather the investment decision becomes subject to the directions and approvals of the Central Bank.

Hantoush stressed that this approach lacks the concept of "financial liberalization" for banks, which would provide the banking sector the opportunity to enter the Iraqi market directly and support investment opportunities, while adhering to banking and legal controls.

He stressed that reviewing these policies may be a necessary step to activate the role of banks in supporting economic projects and promoting investment in Iraq.

 The #1 reason, the only reason why we didn't have a new exchange rate, new lower notes, is because of the terrorism that was coming from Iran...Not anymore...You see more clamping down.  More arrests, more money being returned.

  Question "Is it safe to give somebody at the bank your money before it's verified?"   NO! ...Take care of them.  Don't let them out of your sight...If you go to a bank and they say we're going to exchange the currency for you but we're going to have to take this currency and send it to the upper echelon bank...do a 180, about face, and run like the Road Runner.  Get away from them as fast as you can.  You never want to give up your dinars to anybody...Simply say, give me the address of that bank and you take them.


 Sudani...I honestly feel he has put everybody ...in checkmate...He put Kurdistan and Barzani in checkmate when he showed them the new exchange rate IMO.  He put all the contractors in checkmate ...when they rewrote [contracts] with the new exchange rate IMO...

 AKI:  It's about time.  

WAlKINGSTICK:  What he's telling us is it's about time to release the budget and the new exchange rate with the lower notes.  That's what he meant.

 Walkingstick 

 The ATM machines, they're all poised like centurions that are standing there.  These ATMs are guarding the lower notes.  It's time for all of this to come out now.  It's just the budget we are waiting for.  We're not waiting for any laws, we're not waiting for any new procedures.

  Question: "Why haven't we had a new exchange rate?" 

 It's always the same answer, it's the corruption from Iran that steals from the auctions from the CBI...government through the political people that they have.

You can stop asking question about the budget.  It's all there.  Concerning the tripartite budget, everything...all the projects...cities, new exchange rate, lower notes, ATM machines, contracts, everything, it is all there...It is a fact...The GOI has the budget and they have the new exchange rate from the CBI.

 The Iraqi citizens are being given their education, not our education.  They are telling the Iraqi citizens what they need to hear at this moment in the monetary reform process...

 $4.9 billion for a pipeline in the budget...Didn't you say it was 6.5 billion dinars

 'Yeah.'  And you're saying it equals $4.9 billion? 'Yeah.'...

They told the world...6.5 billion IQDs is equivalent to $4.9 billion...6.5 divided by 4.9 it comes out to 1.32 or $0.76...You don't have to think anymore after this...That's billions to billions not trillions to millions.  That's a rate change...You're telling the world this.

[Iraqi bank friend]

 Aki in Dearborn...he's got one [new ATM machine like the ones delivered in Iraq].

They put these ATM machines out in order to put out the lower notes...These ATM machines will teach the citizens about the lower denoms and it will teach the bank employees about this as well too...There's going to be a stampede of people that will be rushing into the Iraqi dinars...These ATM machines are now being impregnated...

When they load or if they have loaded them up [new ATMs], the note count has already been determined.  The note count for each individual machine has already been accounted for...

These machines will be the state of the art...State of the art has nothing to do with a program rate.  If it was they would have had the state-or-the-art with the program rate for the last 20 years...The CBI is desperately trying to put out the least amount of currency at the onset before they release the new exchange rate.  Because once they do this, if needed, they will be able to add to this note count as the value is needed.

These ATM machines have the capability to recognize the lower denoms that are soon to be passed out to the citizens in order to add value to their currency and to go hand in hand with a new exchange rate of the lower notes...These ATM machines have the software for the lower notes.  

But does it have the lower notes in these ATM machines

 It is unknown...Since April there have been thousands of these ATMs being put out...FOR READ MORE: https://dinarevaluation.blogspot.com/2024/06/rv-update-by-walkingstick-19-june.html
