.The US Federal Reserve will not be able to wait forever, and it is expected that there will be federal measures that may occur at any moment, and there will be a sudden and large demand for the dollar, which will lead to a decrease in the value of the Iraqi dinar against the dollar, which will generate great pressure on the Iraqi banking system, the Iraqi economy and the official political system."
Article: "Iraqi banking system..A significant increase in the number of bank accounts and the volume of deposits for citizens"
Quote: "The banking system in Iraq is gradually regaining citizens’ confidence...In Iraq, economic and political challenges over the decades have provided a strong justification for keeping money at home rather than in banks.
However, the accession of the Iraqi Deposit Insurance Corporation (ICDI) to the International Association of Deposit Insurers was a decisive step in improving confidence in the banking system.
Since its accession, Iraq has witnessed a significant increase in the number of bank accounts and the volume of deposits...This development enhances Iraq’s ability to attract investment and support economic growth by converting savings into productive investments."

Baghdad / NINA / The Parliamentary Committee on Economy, Industry and Trade disclosed a number of observations related to the Central Bank's measures to confront the rise in the dollar exchange rate against the dinar.
Member of the committee, MP Osama Al-Badri, stated that "there are different observations and points of view regarding the current measures of the Central Bank of Iraq in light of the lack of control over the rise in the exchange rate of the currency."
He explained that "the instability of the exchange rate has caused the emergence of the parallel market and increased the economic burden on citizens in light of the rise in prices due to the fluctuation of the exchange rate, and this requires the Central Bank's management to take effective measures to limit the impact of the parallel market. "
He added that "the Central Bank needs to adopt more decisive policies and coordinate with government agencies to achieve tangible economic stability," calling on the Central Bank to take serious steps to reduce the gap between the official exchange rate of 1320 dinars per dollar, and the parallel market and ensure price stability. / https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?Key=1144263
